Livingston James Supports Wooden Spoon Wine Tasting Helping Raise Over £5,000

We were delighted to support last year’s Wooden Spoon Charity Wine Tasting and helped raise over £5,000 for disadvantaged children across Scotland.

Wooden Spoon is the children’s charity of rugby. They fund life-changing projects across the UK and Ireland to support children and young people with disabilities and facing disadvantages. With research showing that 1 in 20 children in the UK have a disability and 3.5 million children are living in poverty, we need your help more than ever to raise additional funds for this wonderful charity.

A huge thank you to our sponsors HF Group and Ryden, the wonderful The Great Grog Company for the delicious wine, the Chair of the West Committee Alastair Kellock, thanks to Livingston James Group for providing the venue and to our helpers for supporting on the evening and to Glasgow Warriors for your continued support.

Now we look forward to The Wooden Spoon Dinner which is being held in the Hilton Hotel, on Thursday 7th March 2024, with guest speaker Wayne Barnes.
