Something went wrong - please try again later. Sign Up Charity Outfit Moray has accused social media giant Facebook of “stealing” donations pledged to help youngsters. The Lossiemouth-based group raised thousands of pounds from their annual Cairngorm to Coast 62-mile hike and bike challenge in 2019. A call to support the Outfit Moray fundraisers after the endurance event generated an extra £35 of donations through Facebook. However, the cash has since become locked in one of the tech firm’s accounts without being passed to the outdoor learning charity or returned to the original donors.

Outfit Moray recieves cash boost to continue outdoors programmes

Trust and grants fundraiser Hayley Russell believes the funding boost is “crucial” to provide theses activities without placing financial burdens on families across the region. Ignite is a eight-week programme of outdoor learning activities which can encourage young people back into the classroom, thus improving their future employment opportunities. Mrs Russell said: “It costs around £250k a year for us to deliver our EnerG strand, which is specifically for vulnerable and disadvantaged young people in Moray. “These targeted activities are free at the point of engagement, so participants can benefit from these life-changing opportunities without placing a financial burden on their family.”
