Two ‘incredible’ runners have raised more than £5000 for a Clydebank hospice in memory of their late grandfather.
Stephanie and Megan took on the Florence Marathon to support St Margaret of Scotland Hospice which cared for their granddad.
Their efforts have been recognised as not just a feat of physical endurance but a touching tribute to their late family member.
The funds raised from the duo’s efforts will play a “crucial” role in allowing the hospice to continue providing “specialist care and comfort” to families facing challenging times.
