Annan is to be the start of a family’s Scottish Coast2Coast bicycle ride to raise money for Ronald McDonald House Charities UK.
The three-day 170-mile fundraiser, Ray of Light Ride, from April 21 to 23 aims to raise £5,000 with £2,851 gifted so far.
It is in memory of Eilidh Frances Richards, who died at just six weeks old, and will help the independent charity continue its vital work in providing free “home away from home” accommodation to families of seriously ill children being treated in hospitals across the UK.
