THE SCOTTISH SCHOOLS CALL UP
With momentum building for EURO 2024, AR26 Charity is asking schools across Scotland to join us upfront in our latest campaign to give our founder and Scotland Captain Andy Robertson MBE and his Scotland team mates the biggest and best send off for Euro 2024.
Play your part by not only giving the Scotland Men’s National Football Squad the send-off they deserve and support that is second to none for the forthcoming Euro 2024 tournament, but help the Captain’s charity continue to create chances for children and young people across Scotland, closing the gap on disadvantage and levelling the playing field, promoting those all-important first chances in life.
AR26 Charity do this via our three core programmes delivered across Scotland:
