Supporting Bright Futures at Friends of Ashton

We’re thrilled to have visited Friends of Ashton to present a cheque for £4,000! This incredible charity supports Ashton Secondary in Glasgow, providing a specialised learning environment for nearly 200 young people aged 11-18 with profound and severe disabilities.

Thanks to funding made possible by the Scottish Children’s Lottery, Friends of Ashton have created a wheelchair-accessible immersive room. This innovative space uses interactive floor and wall projection systems and an Eye Gaze Tracking System to help students develop communication, motor skills, and social confidence in a calm and engaging setting.

The immersive room empowers these young people to break down barriers, build friendships, and thrive within their families and the wider community.

Thank you to the players of the Scottish Children’s Lottery for making projects like this possible!

Sign up today and start playing for your chance to win big and give back!
