Scottish children's hospice gifted huge Loch Lomond estate plus one million pounds
A Scottish children's hospice has been left overwhelmed after being gifted a serene 133-acre estate overlooking Loch Lomond plus a one million pound donation.
Ecstatic trustees and volunteers at Children's Hospices Across Scotland (CHAS) announced the charity has been gifted the Ardoch Estate in West Dunbartonshire in addition to the huge cash sum by the Ardoch Foundation.They say the total gift to the charity, which specialises in providing care for children across Scotland facing life-shortening conditions, will make a deep impact on CHAS's goal to reach more families up and down the country.
Although the assets will be handed over mid-2020, CHAS will take over the operational responsibilities in 2021.
