BEAVERS, Cubs and Scouts from the 18th Ayrshire Scout Group (St Columba), 14th Ayrshire Scout Group (Prestwick) and Morrison’s Ayr, shelled out for chocolate treats, to give Easter Bunny Beaver Scout Dayn, from Prestwick, a hand to make this year’s Easter appeal a cracking success.
Young people who will benefit from Dayn’s Easter kindness, are the patients at the Royal Hospital for Children, and the Yorkhill Charity. After a heart felt appeal from Dayn, who has complex heart defects and attends the Royal Hospital for Children regularly for check ups and very soon an open heart operation to repair Truncus arteriosus with aortic arch interruption. (a full repair to all 4 areas).
Dayn said ‘Lets surprise all the sick kids in hospital for Easter.’
All the young people in the Scout Groups asked family and friends to contribute whatever they could for Dayn. Morrison’s Ayr and their customers were also very generous donating a full trolley load of Easter Treats for Dayns Easter Appeal.
Jane Clark Community Champion for Morrison’s Ayr said ‘We can only imagine how hard it must be to celebrate Easter in hospital and when I heard about Dayn’s journey and his selfless Easter Appeal I knew it would be something Morrison’s Ayr and our charitable customers would love to get involved with.’
Fiona Hainey Beaver Leader for the 14th Ayrshire Scouts Group said ‘Dayn is a gift to those he’s around. His positive attitude and charitable nature is humbling. Dayn has tirelessly collected seasonal treats for the children in the hospitals of Ayrshire and Glasgow for years now and the Scout Groups from the Kyle and Carrick District are delighted to be part of his Easter and Christmas appeals every year. Dayn you are awesome!’
Dayn will deliver over 350 Easter treats to the sick children and their parents over the Easter period, hopefully bringing a smile to their faces.
A massive thank you to everyone that gave so generously to Dayns’ Easter Appeal.
