An International Women’s Day event held at a Lanarkshire gym raised over £1100 which will go to fund scholarships for four budding young actresses.
The fundraising get-together was the brainchild of Kirsty McCourt, from Waterloo, whose initial aim was to help one young women.
The 44-year-old mum-of-two runs her own business, Kirsty’s Travelling Tearoom, in her spare time as well as being a Maintenance Officer for Trust Housing in Wishaw.
