MAGGIE’S and Royal Bank of Scotland came together to form a four-week charity partnership to support people with cancer across six of its centres in North and Central Scotland.

The partnership saw Royal Bank of Scotland donate £5 each time a member of the community downloaded and used the RBS mobile banking app in the area.

Valerie Ross, Maggie’s head of fundraising, said: “We are delighted that Royal Bank of Scotland chose to support Maggie’s across North and Central Scotland supporting our centres in Edinburgh, Fife, Forth Valley, Dundee, Aberdeen and The Highlands with this initiative.

“We rely almost entirely on voluntary donations to support our professional programme of cancer support across Scotland and this partnership has come at a time when people with cancer need Maggie’s more than ever.”

Sandy Watson, RBS regional director for Scotland North & Central, said: “We have worked with Maggie’s in the past and colleagues were delighted to be involved again.

“By working together, we’ve raised money for cancer support services at Maggie’s and also helped people in our local community to bank from the comfort of their own homes.”
