Strathcarron Hospice recently revealed its fundraising partner for the upcoming Falkirk Wheel Abseil event scheduled for Sunday, March 16, 2025. This annual event is a significant part of the hospice’s fundraising efforts, and this year, they have teamed up with Haldane Construction to support the cause.

The Falkirk Wheel Abseil offers participants a unique opportunity to descend from the world’s only rotating boat lift at a height of 100 feet. Claire Kennedy, corporate fundraiser at Strathcarron, expressed gratitude towards Peter and the team at Haldane Construction for their sponsorship, ensuring that all funds raised will directly contribute to the hospice’s essential work in caring for those in need.

The partnership between Strathcarron Hospice and Haldane Construction holds special significance as founder Andrew Haldane received care at the hospice before his passing in 2020. Andrew, who established Haldane Construction in 2003, played a pivotal role in the company’s growth. Peter Archibald, managing director at Haldane, emphasized the importance of honoring Andrew’s legacy through their support for the hospice.

Reflecting on Andrew’s memory, Peter expressed gratitude to the Strathcarron team for their exceptional care during his final days. He hopes that the upcoming abseil event will raise substantial funds to further the hospice’s impactful work. The collaboration between Haldane Construction and Strathcarron Hospice serves as a tribute to Andrew’s enduring legacy and the compassionate care he received.
