Tracy Kelly, the project manager of Glasgow SOLE Supported Living, said: “We want everyone to feel special after the last few years we have had.
“This is our first in-person award ceremony in three years, and we have huge plans for the day.
“We would love to be able to raffle some great gifts, like beauty products, lunch vouchers, cinema tickets, afternoon tea, and alcohol (for the staff) to help celebrate with the people we support and their families.
“We have worked hard to raise the funds to hold the awards by walking the Kiltwalk and by having raffles throughout the year.
“The service provides 24-hour care to individuals and groups in their own homes, and we support them socially, personally and with all aspects of their lives in the east-end and southside of Glasgow.
“We are supporting 43 people plus their families and with 102 staff we are hoping to have around 170 people at the event. Any donation big or small would be very welcome.”
If you can help make this event one to remember by offering a raffle prize, email tracy.kelly@quarriers.org.uk or call 07812 228520.
