Huge congratulations to Corra's Chair Luke McCullough on this fantastic new appointment! 👏

Today I’m furious. And a little defeated. This beautiful girl is three in January.

Worth retweeting for two reasons - 1) it is very much worth reading what @Shelley_Corra has to say, and 2) the cuteness overload from that photograph...

🌟🌟🌟 Corra would like to say a huge THANK YOU to all of our wonderful volunteers this #VolunteersWeekScot 🎉 Thank you for all the fantastic work that you do, and for your commitment to creating positive change!

I can’t think of anyone better than the truly wonderful Shelley Gray 🧡🇺🇦 to take on this role at this time. Congratulations Shelley, you’ll be brilliant! And congratulations Scottish Human Rights Commission on a brilliant appointment.

Passionate about solving poverty in Scotland, good at doing stuff, want to work in a great team? Then this could be the job for you!! DM if you’d like a chat about it. goodmoves.com/vacancy/a4s3z0…

#GIVE400 I’ve made donations to Aberlour Children's Charity Poverty Relief Appeal & to Corra Foundation Household Hardship Fund. Both give cash or vouchers to folks who need a bit of help to cope with fuel poverty & the cost of living crisis. That way, they can choose to spend it on what they need.

If you can help the fabulous @PEEK_project_ buy warm jackets and wellies for children who don’t have them, please do. #GIVE400

1/2 We have decided not to send Christmas Cards this year and instead we are making a donation to The Corra Foundation’s Household Hardship Fund, a Scottish charity which supports families and individual on low income with cash or vouchers
