Original post from Laura Lamb :

“As Chair of Lenzie Academy PTA since 2019 it is time for me to step down as my youngest daughter is leaving school. It has been an unusual 4 years with many challenges but I have enjoyed fundraising on behalf of the school community and in particular being able to provide equipment and supplies for the school that otherwise wouldn’t be available to them. Before I leave, along with fellow committee member Fiona MacLeod, I’m hoping to raise money by walking the 96 miles of the West Highland Way and we would appreciate your donations. As we complete the walk, over 7 days from May 31st, we will write a brief blog and update social media, justgiving and the PTA website with photos. Thank you in advance for your support and I will be happy to hand over the reins of the PTA to a new Chair and the rest of the fabulous committee at the end of the school year.”

Good luck Laura & Fiona! Hope you don’t get too many blisters!
