The Charities Campaign at the oldest University in Scotland has voted in Trekstock as one of it’s six official charities for the next academic year 2010-11!
Our favourite St. Andrews attendee and Trekstock Ambassador Freddie Fforde tells us;
“Each year the Campaign raises in excess of £65,000 for it’s nominated causes to be split between them equally. It also gives the charity a solid foothold amongst the students and Trekstock are delighted to kick off its presence in Scotland in this way.”
Freddie, a 2nd year student, will be busy over the next 16 months to make sure that the message gets through. “It’s a great way to kick things off up here.
It’s a small town and not hard to get people talking, and we’ve also got lots in the way of fashion and music up here. We will be forming a committee up here over the coming months and be looking at ways we can use the Trekstock brand in the best possible environment - a student town.”
We’re hoping to have our first gig in Scotland at St Andrews at some point next year to thank the students for their support, so keep an eye out if you’re in the area!
