Hosted by Sarah, the Fundraising Manager at Scottish Families Affected by Alcohol and Drugs, this episode dives into Christina's motivation and the impact of her efforts.

Sarah also provides practical tips for those looking to start their own fundraising efforts, from using paper sponsor forms to personally approaching potential donors.
