Quarriers' Noel Lunch 2009

Last Friday (4th December) over 350 people attended Quarriers Noel Lunch held at the Marriott Hotel in Glasgow to enjoy lunch and support some of the most vulnerable people in Scotland.

FRED MACAULAY RAISES THE ROOF AT QUARRIERS NOEL LUNCH

Guest speaker, broadcaster and comedian, Fred Macaulay had everyone in tears as he took to the stage to entertain the crowd. He also led the auction, managing to get people to dig even deeper than ever before into their pockets to bid on some fantastic prizes. These included a hospitality package to Wimbledon, a 5 star hotel trip to London including theatre tickets, white water rafting experience and even a round of golf with Fred Macaulay at Loch Lomond.

Before the auction took place, Roger Mills, Chairman of Quarriers, introduced a short video about a family whose daughter has a disability. She is supported at one of Quarriers respite services meaning her parents get a welcome break. They each spoke about how they cope with raising a child who requires intensive support 24 hours a day.

A massive £46,500 was raised for Quarriers on the day, until one of the main sponsors Faxco raised it to £50,000, massively beating last years total.

Quarriers would like to thank their main sponsors Faxco and TSG. Other sponsors include Cameron Presentations, Marriott Glasgow, Enid Reid Flowers, Tunnocks, Golden Casket Group and Burn Stewart Distilleries. None of this would have been possible without their support.
