A Torbrex woman whose day job is keeping trains running on Britain’s West Coast mainline has taken to cycling to raise funds local charity Equi-Power while working from home.
Eileen Abbess is already on target to cover 500 miles in five weeks to support a campaign to build a new Riding for the Disabled (RDA) centre of excellence in the city’s Kildean area. She’s aiming to raise £5,000.
Equi-Power has the daunting task of finding more than £140,000 from crowdfunding, even before they can start applying for grants to build the £2m state-of-the-art facility to replace one at Sauchieburn in Bannockburn.
