Staff from Tam’s Brig Surgery in Ayr put their best foot forward to raise over £3,000 for the Ayrshire Hospice.

A team from the surgery recently challenged themselves to summit Goatfell on Arran in support of the charity- and their efforts were rewarded by raising over £3,000 from generous supporters.

A spokesperson said: "At the GP practice at Tam's Brig Surgery, we are very aware and very grateful for the work the hospice does to support our patients and their families.

"Most of us working in the practice live locally as well and our gratitude is both on a professional and personal level.

"The hospice provides vital enabling support services, allowing people to live as well as possible to the end of their life.

"Their support continues to those affected by the loss of a loved one, helping people process events and find a way forward.

"This support would not be possible without fundraising efforts and so we are hoping to contribute in some way to this effort."

A hospice spokesperson added: "Thank you and well done Team Tam’s Brig."
