Dress for Depression fundraiser success

FUNDRAISERS Jennifer Jonsen, Julie Gardiner and Martin Connelly were dressed to impress at the weekend — all for a good cause.

The trio held a Dress for Depression evening at Eaglesham Bowling Club, with 100 new/once worn dresses shown off and auctioned in aid of the Scottish Association for Mental Health (SAMH).

The event — sponsored by Catherine’s of Partick — raised an impressive £1,600.

beginning.

“In 20 years being involved in charity events, this evening was the most interactive and emotional — warmest thank yous to all who helped.”
