A 24-HOUR walk raising funds for Cancer Research UK is due to come to Dunbar next year. The Relay for Life event, which collects money for lifesaving research, is set to be staged outside the town’s Hallhill Sports Centre next summer. A final date for the fundraiser, which would be coming to Dunbar for the first time, has not yet been confirmed but organisers are in early discussions with the representatives of the sports centre on Kellie Road. Carrie Lennon, Cancer Research UK relationship manager, is among those hoping to take part in the fundraiser, with the town close to her heart.
THE convenor of East Lothian Liberal Democrats resigned less than a week after the Scottish Parliament election, citing “disappointment” with the party’s leader Willie Rennie. Kit Fraser has only been a member of the party’s East Lothian branch for two years and convenor since the start of the year. But he wrote to local members and supporters informing them of his decision. The Dunbar resident, and former Dunbar United FC secretary, said he made the decision with “a heavy heart” and “deeply regrets the move” but felt there was “no other way of expressing my disappointment, indeed disillusionment, with Scottish leader Willie Rennie and his leadership team”.
