B.B. - Anchor Boys – Christmas Gift Appeal 2023
After last years amazing donation of over 125 selection boxes to Roots Food Bank the Anchor Boys wanted to do a little something different to give back to the community this year. We never thought we could beat that mammoth achievement.
With the help of parents, out incredible 6 boys and Daniel from Company Section managed to raise enough money by doing simple chores around the house and filling up 2 smarties tubes each with 20ps to make up 10 luxury gift hampers packed full of lovely treats. They each picked someone in the community they felt deserved an extra wee Christmas gift, this included our own Mr Firth and Mrs Mortimer to thank them in a very small way for everything they had done for the BB. Everyone was so appreciative with their hamper which shows in thank you cards we received.
We are so proud of these boys and without the amazing support of the parents we wouldn’t be able to do these wonderful things. Thank you.

This year 2023 marked the 90th year of Haggs Boys Brigade and to mark the occasion
there was a lunch in the Church Hall and a celebration cake. Former BB Officers
were invited – Lesley and Duncan Milligan, Marion Dickson, Alison Mackie, Robert
and Marie Wardrope, Morag Wales and Ernie Firth to name a few. Jack and
Elizabeth Dunn came back for the occasion too as they had been Elders over the
years for the BB. Lunch had been provided by the ‘usual ladies’ who always
manage to make a tasty spread. I am sure we wish the current BB Officers our
best wishes for the dedicated service they give to the boys in this area

Good News we have started back.
Anchor Boys (Primary 1 – Primary 3) Tuesday between 6.15pm – 7.45pm
