Bo'ness Car 4U

For any malt whisky lovers out there, why don’t you pop into The Corbie Inn to enter the raffle for the last of our bottles of 13 year old AnCnoc Highland single malt at 59.2% cask strength! There were only 210 bottles produced, so it is rare.

All of those periodically raffled, were kindly donated by Alan Gilbert, with the proceeds in aid of Bo’ness Car 4U; your local cancer patient free hospital transport service. Tickets are only £5.00 each and there are only 25 tickets, so £125 will be raised.

We would like to offer huge thanks to Gail and the team at The Corbie Inn, for their amazing support to Bo’ness Car 4U over the last 3 years. Thank you on behalf of our Volunteers and the patients who have benefitted from our service. 👏👏

Congratulations to everyone in Bo’ness Car 4U on this award, not just those in the photograph last night. It also includes those locally who support us in many ways periodically, and specifically Frank Rooney at Hope St Café, who has kindly facilitated our regular meetings. We thank you all. 👏👏
To the kind people of Bo’ness, please keep spreading the word to friends, colleagues and family, that we provide free hospital transport for cancer patients, which can considerably reduce the stress of getting to appointments.

Anytime you shop you can raise a little extra for Bo'ness Car4U.

Many congratulations to Dawn Doran, who has just raised a final total of £ 1263 for our charity, either directly or in donations following publication of this article in the Bo’ness Journal on 29 March. This is an excellent achievement and will be put to good use transferring local cancer patients to their consultations and treatments.

We are always looking for volunteers to help with occasional driving, or with fundraising and Admin. Contact details are in the last 2 paragraphs of the article. Thank you Dawn, and all those who continue to support Bo’ness Car 4U. 👏👏 Please feel free to share. Ps Tap to open.

We just want to thank everyone for enabling us to:

1. Complete 652 drives, including route training for our volunteers, pilot drives prior to full go-live and drives to hospitals across Central Scotland.

2. Cover a total of 27,076 miles driving patients to their appointments.

3. Reach our 3rd birthday of full operation in January 2024.

Thank you one and all for your kind and generous donations, and special thanks to our team of Volunteers👏👏💜

Just a little ‘End of Year Review’ from our Bo’ness Car 4U family of volunteers. During 2023 we helped 29 new patients in addition to those previously referred. Our drivers carried out 302 drives, involving 16,157 miles. This wouldn’t have happened without the commitment of our Duty Coordinators, Drivers and Management Team, who have been amazingly generous with their time. However, more importantly, it would not have been possible without the funds to run the service. A huge ‘THANK YOU’ to everyone who has donated money to us over the year. Your contributions are truly valued, as they are essential in maintaining the future sustainability of the service for our local people. 👏👏

Congratulations Margaret, and thank you once again Alan Gilbert for the very generous donation to support Bo’ness Car 4U.👏👏

And the winner is…………Margaret Fleming! Congratulations to you, we hope you enjoy your prize!
Thanks to everyone who entered.

Congratulations to John Whittaker who’s ticket was drawn for our exclusive bottle of “anCnoc” single malt whisky. This was generously donated by Alan Gilbert to be raffled in aid of Bo’ness Car 4U. It raised £125.00!
