A GIRLS’ Brigade company is helping to spread some Christmas cheer to raise money for a national charity.

The Girls’ Brigade 90th Glasgow Company is taking part in Chest, Heart & Stroke Scotland’s “Christmask Day” campaign where people are asked to wear a festive face mask for a donation to the charity.

The girls will be designing their very own face masks for the event.

Caroline Goodfellow, Chief Executive at Girls’ Brigade Scotland, said:

“We’re delighted to be supporting Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland’s Christmask Day. It has been a really hard year for the charity, and we all hope that by taking part and raising vital funds we’ll be able to help people who are living with chest, heart and stroke conditions to rebuild their lives.

“The girls are all really excited and we know how creative they all are so we can’t wait to see all their festive designs!

“Service to others is at the heart of Girls’ Brigade and supporting others is, for us, a practical demonstration of our Christian values by helping the wider community.”

Jane-Claire Judson, Chief Executive at Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland, said:

“It is fantastic to have the Girls’ Brigade supporting our Christmask Day and to have girls of all ages taking part in the fun and getting creative. We can’t wait to see all their Christmassy ideas for the facemasks!

“Christmask Day is going to be such a fun day for everyone to wear a festive face mask and raise vital funds to support people struggling during the pandemic. We all need a bit more joy in our lives right now and that’s what Christmask Day is all about – having festive fun while raising vital funds to help people do more than survive and really live.”
