Latest update @ 24 June:
The ongoing appeal has now raised an excellent circa 2,100 pounds (with GiftAid). As the Trust has separately agreed to make a grant of 1,000 pounds, this means that the Trust (so far) guarantees that circa 3,100 pounds will be available to help defray the budgeted (Chess Scotland) cost of this event.
With still some 4 weeks before the Glorney Gilbert Junior Internationals begin (after the Scottish Championships), there is still time to make further donations and make further inroads into the event budget.
This is a very good cause and sponsors' generosity will long be appreciated by our competing youngsters … and their many visiting international opponents.
