The boost in funds will help with running costs for the various activities carried out by the Club, which include a "bake and eat" session - with shortbread at the top of the list - mixed sports and a pond dipping outing.

Jacky Nicoll, Convenor of the Local Management Group, said that the donation would be put to good use, adding:

"It's great to see the kids learning things together. It's an excellent way to get them involved in social interaction."

David Mitchell, Servite Housing Officer, added:

"One of the good things is seeing the kids enjoying themselves in a safe and entertaining environment. They're obviously having a lot of fun."
