A sheltered housing complex in Leith is supporting this year’s Comic Relief. The Port of Leith Association (PoLHA) development at Jameson Place will host a series of fundraising events next week for its residents as well as anyone who wants to drop by!
On Monday at 2pm there will be a quiz followed by afternoon tea and on Tuesday at 12pm a lunch will be served. A race night at 7pm on Wednesday and a traditional fairground games afternoon and tombola at 2pm on Thursday will raise funds, culminating with a social night and auction on Friday at 7pm.
Elaine Edwards, Scheme Co-ordinator at Jameson Place Sheltered Housing Complex, said: “The residents have a ball getting involved in the fundraising activities and we hope local people will pop along to join in the fun while raising some money for this important cause.”
Jameson Place will charge between £1 and £3 for people to join in the fun. The complex fundraisers for Comic Relief every two years and in 2011 raised £288 for the charity.
