A big-hearted Linwood woman was left “stunned” when she was handed £30,000 to be put towards a new car from Arnold Clark.

The reward was for her heartfelt fundraising efforts in this year’s Glasgow Kiltwalk.

Fiona Slicer - who is originally from the Isle of Skye but now lives in Renfrewshire - completed the 14-mile Big Stroll to raise money for the Beatson Cancer Charity where her mum, Catriona, is currently undergoing treatment for mantle cell lymphoma.

She was automatically entered into the draw for the life-changing car credit prize - donated by Kiltwalk headline sponsor Arnold Clark - after registering and fundraising for the Glasgow event alongside nearly 19,000 other participants.

Fiona said: "I honestly couldn’t believe it. I walked the kiltwalk for my mum and the Beatson who have been amazing.
