Unique fundraiser blends film and charity together

The event is not your usual fundraiser – it’s a film showcase featuring movies films from independent filmmakers all over Scotland including Weegies, 1416, Moths, MIA and Sundown.

The event is the brainchild of film maker and events organaiser Craig Maclachlan.

He said: “My father passed away from lung cancer in October last year and I saw first hand the work these people do at these organisations so this is my chance to give back.

“I’ve hosted film showcase events in the past, so it made sense to blend one with a charity fundraiser. The five films are all different and all from across Scotland.”

Other entertainment includes a raffle, an auction ing with great prizes donated from all over the country, there will also be live music, a free buffet and a cosplay section.

Craig added: “It’s going to be a great night so brave the cold for a great cause and celebrate some Scottish films.

The event takes place tomorrow (Thursday, January 24) at Loks Bar & Kitchen from 7pm.

Tickets cost £5 with all proceeds going to charity.
