An annual Old Firm football match has raised vital funds to purchase a home for women recovering from drug addiction.
The charity game in Fraserburgh raised thousands of pounds for the RNLI last year after local man, James Sutherland, succumbed to cancer.
The 51-year-old had been diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2014 and died suddenly in March last year.
At the time, friends rallied to support his family and organised a football match between his favourite side, Celtic, and their fiercest rivals at Fraserburgh’s all-weather pitch.
They raised about £4,000 and donated the cash to the local lifeboat, in memory of the offshore worker.
Following that success, the group once more donned the hoops of Celtic and blue of Rangers to raise cash.
This year, the money – about £3,000 – was split between the local lifeboat and Teen Challenge’s Buy Benaiah campaign.
Norman Reid, who helped organise the game, said: “The game went really well.”
“Rangers won 7-6 on penalties, but Celtic took a 1-0 lead early on.
“Rangers had a strong team with Highland League Russell McBride holding them together at the back. Celtic came out strong in the second half and Rangers could not cope with the pace and movement of the Buchan Bhoys.
“It ended 4-4, and the match was settled on penalties. The match was played in good spirits and well refereed by Kenny Milne.”
The money will help Teen Challenge purchase its Benaiah centre, near Mintlaw, which helps women recover from addictions.
The purchase of the facility would allow women to live there with their children until they have completed the faith-based Teen Challenge recovery programme.
So far, efforts to purchase the property for the women have included a trek across both the US and Europe by Teen Challenge manager Gordon Cruden.
Mr Cruden also slept rough in cities across the UK to raise awareness for the campaign. And his work has raised £388,000 for the cause.
Teen Challenge estimates it needs at least £535,000 to purchase the home.
