Queen's Park Football Club has honoured Epilepsy Scotland's 70th anniversary with a commemorative strip.
The club presented the special shirt at Epilepsy Scotland's Govan headquarters, marking a decade-long partnership rooted in community spirit and remembrance.
The relationship between Queen's Park FC and Epilepsy Scotland was sparked by the tragic loss of Martin Kelly, a cherished member of the supporters' club, to Sudden Unexplained Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP).
Mr Kelly, the voice behind Queen's Park TV match highlights and a dedicated fan, left a lasting impact on the club's community.
The Queen's Park Supporters Association Travel Club Player of the Year award now carries his name.
Lesslie Young OBE, chief executive of Epilepsy Scotland, said: "We would like to thank Queen's Park Football Club and members of their Supporters Association for helping mark our 70th anniversary."
The Queen's Park Supporters Association has continually honoured Mr Kelly's memory through various fundraising activities.
These include charity football matches, race nights, raffles, and quiz nights, with all proceeds supporting Epilepsy Scotland's crucial work.
Ms Young added: "Despite the progress made in epilepsy care over the past seven decades, there are ongoing challenges and so much more needs to be done, especially around employment.
"Substantial work remains in promoting understanding and education.
"By improving both, we could see a real reduction in the stigma that still attaches itself to the condition that affects many on a daily basis."
Kieran Koszary, head of commercial at Queen's Park, said: "Congratulations to the team at Epilepsy Scotland on their 70th birthday, a fantastic achievement for a charity who do such fantastic work in the community and beyond.
"We look forward to working with them for many more years in the future."
