A former Rangers director and his business partner brother have marked Remembrance week by donating to a veterans' charity, Erskine. 

Now McGill's Bus Service owners, Sandy and James Easdale handed over a cheque of £1000 to the charity at it's home in Bishopton.

Sandy Easdale, co-owner of McGill’s Buses, said: “The work of Erskine in caring for those who served their country is renowned and we’re pleased to be able to make a contribution to the charity.

"Their home at Bishopton is at the heart of the community McGill’s Buses serves and although this year’s Remembrance period will be different, we need to remember Erskine’s outstanding efforts require continued support.

“McGill’s also continues to offer all-year free travel to all serving Armed Forces personnel, demonstrating our gratitude for their service.”

Ian Cumming, CEO of Erskine, said: “At Erskine, in our Veterans Village, and indeed across all four of our care facilities - we will continue to wear that little red flower, The Poppy. Our Remembrance Services will honour the sacrifices of all who were lost or wounded, during wars of national survival in Europe, or subsequent military and peacekeeping operations around the world.

"We care for those who returned, to remember those who did not – with heartfelt hope of enduring peace and would like to thank everyone who continues to support our Veterans in this time of exceptional circumstance."

Founded in 1916, Erskine has provided nursing and medical care for members of the UK`s Armed Forces ever since. Erskine provides unrivalled support to veterans in Scotland, through four care homes and a Veterans Village, comprising of 44 cottages, an Activity Centre, five Assisted Living Apartments and 24 Single Living Apartments (currently under construction).
