Karen runs the London Marathon for the National Eczema Society
‘If you are losing faith in human nature, go out and watch a marathon!’
Karen Stephen, Willie and Elaine’s youngest daughter, is running the London Marathon on 26th April. Karen is raising money for the National Eczema Society.
‘This is my first and my last marathon! It’s difficult to raise the enthusiasm to train in the dark, wind and rain but I know if I don’t it will be even slower and more painful on the day. I have had personal experience of eczema and understand how irritating, frustrating and damaging it can be.’

UNITED GINGER
AWARENESS
Ginger Rogers, and its companions Ginger Baker and Ginger Spice, joined us for our open day and were a big hit with visitors and staff alike. They boosted the W M Donald ginger ratio well above the estimated Scottish norm of 12% of the population. Like their human counterparts, such as Ed Sheeran, Prince Harry and Ewan Riddoch, ginger nowt are quiet, devoted and well-behaved...when on show.
*Nowt is a term used in Scotland and Northern England for a herd of cattle.

Celtic, Manchester City and...W M Donald
Like Celtic, Manchester City and Tiger Roll (in the Grand National), the W M Donald team successfully defended its ANCHOR Wipeout Corporate Cup title in 2019. As far as we know, none of the team have yet been put out to stud, but it can surely only be a matter of time!
ANCHOR Wipeout is an annual event staged in Hazlehead Park to raise money to ensure cancer patients in North-East Scotland get the best care and attention during their diagnosis, treatment and recuperation.
