Friends and relatives of a young Lanarkshire woman who lost her life to a rare form of cancer at the age of 23 are taking to the dance floor with ballroom world legends in the first Strictly fundraiser of its kind in Scotland.
The eight-strong Team Eilidh is among five teams who will battle it out under the disco ball in Strictly Beatson – the first formation dance event ever held in aid of charity.
Team Eilidh will be dancing to raise thousands of pounds for Beatson Cancer Charity’s new bereavement support service, whose care and compassion will support the families and friends of people like Eilidh McHugh, of Bothwell, who tragically died on March 7, 2017.
