The evening raised an amazing total of £1485 which has been split between CLAN Cancer Support Moray (for Elgin, Buckie, Lossiemouth and Forres facilities) and Aberdeen Royal Infirmary Renal Unit to provide fold up beds for the ward in memory of Julie McConnachie, a former Walkers Shortbread employee.
