    Following the huge success of its debut in 2011, Lorraine Kelly launched a call for team entries and sub-sponsors for the Alliance Trust Cateran Yomp in 2012. Lorraine joined 5 soldiers in her home town of Dundee ahead of the 52 mile walk along the Cateran Trail which starts in Blairgowrie.


    Unlike other walking challenges, the Alliance Trust Cateran Yomp offers something for everyone, with Bronze (22 miles), Silver (36.5 miles) or Gold (52 miles) routes along the Cateran Trail which starts in Blairgowrie - there’s a challenge for everyone!

    Social Media Week Success

    PSYBT collaborated with Fundación Impulsar, based in Argentina, during Social Media Week  in a live streaming innovation challenge. Local PSYBT supported businesses and volunteers challenged their contemporaries across the pond to think of creative ways of making everyday products, more innovative. The event was a cultural exchange that helped both parties step outside of their comfort zones and it was a lot of fun at the same time!
