Just to confirm that we have renewed our two seats for next season that are available to be used by the Edinburgh Children’s Hospital. We have provided these for 16 years now.

Not being a sxxt stirrer here but out of interest who uses the two seats?  Who are the usual types of attendees? Is it a parent and child for example? Just interested to know because it is a great thing to do by JKB and I organised sponsored walks to raise funds for them for 10 years in a row back in the day.

Is there anything we could do to raise funds for JKB to provide more than 2 seats? 
 

We seen the generosity of fans recently so there’s potential.

We have asked previously and they were happy with the two seats.

Wish I had the experience back then to think of this.  We raised a good few thousand each year for one of the units in the Sick Kids.  The cash was used for various things for the parents / children when they had to stay in the unit and/or during post care visits.  Back then, late 80's into late 90's a pair, or more of ST's would have been a great option.  Would have been easier to get them as well then I guess.  

 

Well done on this initiative 👍

Sometimes it's the little things that count the most.

 

One of these kids might just end up being a Hearts legend either on or off the pitch (once us old fogies are long gone).

 

Butterflies flapping their wings etc.

 

Keep contributing fellow JKBers. 👍

Next time I'm struggling for a derby ticket the wee man's getting a snapped femur (he's 22 now 😁)

In all seriousness great gesture again 👏 👍
