Fundraising

We separate our fund-raising efforts into 2 distinct categories:

- those that are raising funds directly for Logan (all funds held for his future care)
- those aimed at Duchenne research

Projects that we have been involved with so far include: 

- Logan's Bear brand items, including the now famous Logan's Bear (an exclusive male teddy dressed in Highland outfit)
- Gareth's 'forty step fling' challenge
- Gareth's Cowal Fling Challenge - an incredible 50 step fling attempt to raise awareness for the Duchenne Condition
- Charity Bingo night
- Craft fair
- an annual Charity Highland Dancing Festival - the first competition, being held in 2010, raising awareness of, and funds for, Action Duchenne
- various marathons, half-marathons and other runs in the UK and overseas (run not by me but by friends)
- sales by us of the Caledonia Cookbook - we have sold more than 150 books raising funds for Action Duchenne
- many companies, having been made aware of the condition by friends in the dancing world, have now donated to Action Duchenne
- SOBHD Charity Concert, organised by Gemma Baillie and Rachel McLagan, raising funds for Action Duchenne and the MS Society Scotland. - and the list goes on, so far raising in excess of £15,000 directly for Action Duchenne

Many thanks to all those who have helped so far and to all of those who are continue to assist us.
