We’re excited to announce our new Charity Partner: Thistle Foundation! This incredible organisation is dedicated to empowering those in need, showing them that life is always worth living.
This week, Jai Savage-Morton and Rebecca Cuthbertson visited Thistle Foundation to learn more about their impactful work and meet individuals whose lives have been transformed by their programs. One highlight? Trying out the adaptive bikes that help people regain independence and rediscover activities they thought were out of reach.
Our visit included an inspiring tour of Thistle HQ with Hannah Fergague and Laura MacKinnon, where we saw firsthand the fantastic amenities designed to support and uplift the community. Over a delicious Maki & Ramen lunch, we also had the privilege of meeting Warren, a remarkable individual who joined Thistle’s Lifestyle Management program just 18 months ago. Warren’s journey—from being referred to Thistle to now working as a gym employee—is a powerful testament to the life-changing work this charity does.
We’re proud to contribute to our local community through initiatives like the Kilt Walk and our in-store programs, which have already raised nearly £2,000 for Thistle Foundation. But we’re not stopping there!
This Monday, visit any of our Edinburgh branches from 4-8pm, and for every bowl of ramen sold, we’ll donate £1 to Thistle Foundation—at no extra cost to our customers. Together, let’s make a difference!
