Dunbartonshire Chamber of Commerce was proud to support the recent Freedom Boat Club Loch Lomond Annual Christmas Kick-Off – Santa’s Social, held last Saturday. The event was a true celebration of community, bringing together Chamber members Freedom Boat Club and Old Kilpatrick Food Parcels (OKFP) along with local businesses, volunteers, and families from across the area.
The afternoon was filled with festive cheer, but the greatest highlight was witnessing the generosity and unity of everyone involved. Together, attendees helped raise nearly £600 for Old Kilpatrick Food Parcels, in addition to donating over 100 children’s Advent calendars, more than 50 toys, and multiple food parcels. These contributions will make a meaningful difference to local families during the holiday season.
We extend our sincere thanks to the Freedom Boat Club team for hosting such a successful and heart-warming event, and to Old Kilpatrick Food Parcels for their continued, essential work within the community. As Chamber members, both organisations exemplify the values of collaboration, compassion, and community leadership that lie at the heart of the Dunbartonshire Chamber of Commerce.
We are delighted to have supported the event and are proud of the role our Chamber network plays in strengthening charitable initiatives across the region.
