George Taylor’s 25 years of volunteer support for Capability Scotland has been recognised with an award at the Institute for Fundraising Scotland’s Annual Awards.

George, who has been involved with the charity since 1975, has been actively engaged as Treasurer and Chair of the Perth and Kinross Committee of Capability Scotland. During his leadership, his drive and enthusiasm has ensured that the Committee has raised in excess of £288,500.

Shirley Millar, Trust Manager of Capability Scotland, nominated George for the award. She said: “I am so happy that George has won this Award. He and the Perth and Kinross Committee have helped Capability Scotland and particularly, Upper Springland in Perth, in a number of ways over the years. He truly deserves it.”
