Inchdrewer House Memorial
Over the years many pipers and drummers have given their lives, in various conflicts, in the service of our country. In honour of those brave pipers and drummers, it is proposed to build a Memorial at Inchdrewer House.
It is an expensive project, but so far staff and students at ASBM&HD have raised funds towards the cost of materials and construction. This has been raised through internal fundraising events such as sponsored bike rides, quiz nights – and leg waxing!!
The plan is making good progress and the memorial is hoped to be completed and unveiled in 2013.
Although all fundraising to date has been driven internally at ASBM&HD, we would now like to offer you the opportunity to contribute towards this extremely worthy cause. We feel that any financial support you are able to offer would strengthen the links between our organisations and would be greatly appreciated.
