A retired Auchterarder GP has raised hundreds of pounds for Scotland’s international healthcare charity after he cycled 365 miles around Perthshire.
Roger Paterson (61) completed the EMMS International’s sponsored Malawi Bike Ride, which has traditionally taken place in the East African country, by cycling the distance equivalent to the length of Lake Malawi across 10 bike rides around the Auchterarder and Comrie areas during August.
EMMS International is an Edinburgh-based charity that positively impacts the lives of people in Scotland, Malawi, Nepal and India, offering respite to people with life-limiting conditions in Scotland and developing health services and healthcare infrastructure for people in extreme poverty.
