A charity set up by the family of a teenager who died from a rare form of cancer has been chosen as the Provost’s Charity of the Year for 2023.
The Eilidh Brown Memorial Fund was chosen by Stirling Provost Douglas Dodds, a decision which has now been approved by Stirling Council’s civic panel along with a donation of £1000.
After Eilidh passed away 12 years ago, just days before her 16th birthday, her parents Gordon and Nicole appealed to the people of Stirling to get behind their bid to create a respite holiday home for children and young people with cancer.
