    Windfall donation to help young, aspiring entrepreneurs in the Scottish borders

    Young entrepreneurs in the Scottish Borders are to benefit from a £75,000 windfall to help provide additional support to 18-25 year olds who want to set up and sustain their own businesses.


    The monies have been gifted to The Prince’s Scottish Youth Business Trust (PSYBT) by The Robertson Trust, an independent Scottish grant making trust established by the Robertson sisters who were brought up in the Scottish Borders. They donated the shares in the businesses, founded and developed by their grandfather and father, establishing the Trust in 1961 for charitable purposes.

Shoe designer Emily Lamb has been nominated for a Scottish Variety Award under the ‘Best new Scottish Artist or Designer’ category.

After Graduating from Cordwainers, part of the London College of Fashion which specialises in footwear, she decided to launch her own collection, ensuring every creation was unique with their own original feature and pattern.
