AN Easter Ross landscaping business has extended their Christmas spirit into the New Year by raising £600 for the local mental health charity, Mikeysline.
Seaboard Garden Services, based in Balintore, topped the amount raised in 2023 by collecting discarded Christmas trees from nearby villages for a minimum £10 donation.
Owner of Seaboard Garden Services, Daniel MacLeod, said: “I’d like to thank all my customers for their support and well wishes. All the money raised will help fund the fantastic work Mikeysline do for so many folks up here in the Highlands.
“I’ll continue to have the Mikeysline logo advertised on my van this year and look forward to setting out further fundraising challenges in the future. Mikeysline are a lifeline to so many here in the Highlands and I’m delighted I can play a small part in helping them maintain their vital services.”
