A young girl is set to represent her country in an international bowling competition after her local community rallied around her and raised the money needed for her to attend.
Melissa Ainslie is just 14 but she is a keen bowler and has been invited to compete for Scotland at the European Youth Championships, which are held in France in April.
But it was going to cost Melissa's family around £2,000, and her parents, Kelly, 39, and Allyn, 42, were struggling to pay for the nine-day trip.
