What a day! Hugely humbling to see our young people support the launch of beach wheelchairs in St Andrews and widen access for all.

To quote one “I’ve wanted to come to the beach for years and now I can” truly joyful to see smiles on wheelchair users faces and explorers too.

@debbiemaccallum @ThorntonsPS @VernerAnn @StAndrewsBClub @StAndrews_Live @StAndrewsCit @castlemountbnb @StAndrewsHouses @StephenGethins @theduthieclan @runthedream We really enjoyed the experience and loved spending time with the wheelchair users. They were a great fun bunch and we’d love to do more with them if ever the opportunity arises. Especially enjoyed Mona’s request to run in the wheelchair so she could feel the wind in her hair

@NEFLindsey @cllr_verner Shocking, unacceptable. Renders it unsuitable & unsuitable for visitors. Not a great impression of SA’s either. It’s also used as an underage drinking den. Not idea why it’s not patrolled by @univofstandrews or @FifePolice

[St Andrews Explorers @ExplorersSA]

Great to have the Chair of Tourism St Andrews, Debbie McCallum, come along and share with us her vision for the St Andrews Beach Wheelchairs Project which is badly needed and will make St Andrews and its beaches accessible to all. A project we hope to support through fundraising.

How do you get teens to come out hiking with you? Great for mental health, bonding & teaching independence #getout #mentalhealth #greentherapy https://t.co/dnAOgN2kek

Much depleted numbers due to exams and recovery from weekend expedition but that didn’t deter 6 Explorers, 9km sunset circuit following in princely footsteps from Craigtoun back to base

Congratulations to our leaders Pam, Charmaine and John on being recognised and receiving their recent awards in recognition of good service.

Leaders and supervisors on Bronze @DofEScotland expedition. All conceding it was by far the coldest camp they’d done but smiley happy faces successfully completing their expedition and soon thawed all out.
