Running on…into the future
We are delighted to announce an extension to our sponsorship of the Scottish Cross Country Season until the end of 2023/2024.
The running spikes are on, and the starter pistols have fired. The XC season has begun. We are delighted to be there – every step of the way.
We have enjoyed being part of the Cross Country (XC) world since 2014 when our partnership with scottishathletics and the Scottish XC Season began. The passion and enthusiasm for XC is evident at every event and we’re excited to be signed up now until the end of the 2023/2024 season. Entry numbers just keep growing which adds to the competition for clubs coveting the Lindsays Trophy each season.
The triumphs of our elite athletes in Scotland are inspiring competitors at all levels and the continued success of this competition is testament to that. We wish good luck to all who take part in the months ahead.

On our bikes
Cyclists from our three offices clocked up almost 1,000 miles and raised £1265 when they hit the road for the Tour de Forth 2022.
Our support for Tour de Forth started in 2017 and our colleagues have taken part in every event since then to raise funds. The Tour de Forth in June this year saw over 500 participants cycle two routes from RBS Gogarburn around the River Forth – the 68-mile Classic and the 35- mile Nouveau route. The riders battled high winds and showers but were motivated to as the cycled but were motivated to raise as much as possible for Cash for Kids. The final total raised was an impressive £42,360.
"Our team did so well and while
fun, it was also for a serious
cause - Cash for Kids makes a
remarkable difference to young
lives. We are proud to support
that and delighted to have
played our part in Tour de Forth again."

Game Changers
We've been offering funding and mentorship to students competing in Abertay University's Dare Academy since 2017.
Summer 2022 saw six promising teams of gaming enthusiasts creating their own games and gaining advice and support from some of our lawyers should they decide to take their projects to the next level.
The creativity and success of the gaming industry in Dundee and throughout Scotland is incredibly exciting. The bedrock of that success is ensuring they have the skills to succeed, creatively and economically. Dare Academy helps achieve that.
