Fearless East Lothian grandad with MS to tackle white water rafting for charity

A grandad living with multiple sclerosis (MS) has undertaken the challenge of completing a white water rafting experience on the river Tay to raise £1,000 for charity.

Iain Donaldson Elder, 60, is originally from Musselburgh but now living in Fife, and retired in 2016 after 25 years working in recruitment.

Being diagnosed with MS in 2009 and recently becoming a two-time grandfather, Iain says that he has undergone a “sort of age of awakening” where he decided that he would prove that age is just a number and that MS would not stop him from living life.
