Starting tomorrow for the next few weeks our charity bucket will be taking donations on behalf of Parkinson’s Scotland and Alzheimer’s, the 2 beneficiaries of the Millport 10 Miler fun run taking place next weekend. This is a great event which brings hundreds of runners over to our wee island, raising thousands of pounds for these great charities, and all organised by 2 local girls, Marina Dobbin and Angela Giorgetti, along with their amazing team of volunteers. All donations no matter how small will be greatly received.
Finally, a shout out to everyone taking part in the run. Good luck to you all!

Yes. The Garrison has public toilets which you can use to change in ahead of the race. Public toilets are also located at the crocodile rock and the Cumbrae Ferry slip. Also just over halfway around the island, Fintry Bay Cafe has toilets that they are kindly opening to anyone in the race during the event.

An ATM machine is located outside The Premier Store across from the start line to withdraw cash for registration.
