Miss Scotland has emotional reunion with cousin as she completes Glasgow Kiltwalk
Miss Scotland Amy Scott has completed the Glasgow Kiltwalk - trekking an incredible 14 miles in support of a charity close to her heart. And waiting to meet her at the finish line was her beloved cousin Rhyiza, who lives with Multiple Sclerosis and inspired her to take on the challenge. Amy, of Strathaven , led the Kiltwalk's Saturday 11am start before setting out on the 14-mile Big Stroll, raising vital awareness and more than £600 for Revive MS Support, which provides physical, emotional, financial and social support to people affected by MS across Scotland. The charity provides a range of essential services, including physiotherapy, counselling, benefits support, oxygen therapy, and specialist complementary therapies – many of which would not otherwise be accessible to those who need them. Ahead of the Kiltwalk, Amy visited Revive MS Support centre in Glasgow, where she met staff and spoke with people living with MS about the impact of the charity's services. After completing the gruelling challenge, Amy said: "Every step of those 14 miles was worth it to see Rhyiza waiting for me at the finish line. "MS affects every part of a person's life, and I've seen first-hand how important it is to have access to life-changing support like Revive MS Support provides. "That's why I took on the Kiltwalk this year - to help make sure more people living with MS can get the support that wouldn't be available otherwise. I'm so proud to have walked for such an amazing cause." The Kiltwalk, one of Scotland's largest fundraising events, saw a record breaking number of walkers come together to raise money for causes close to their hearts, with every penny raised going directly to the charities.
