A charity fundraiser in Muir of Ord has generated almost £2000 for Highland Hospice.
The car wash took place in the village square over the weekend and was organised by 43-year-old Gregor Matheson, who is a finalist in this year’s Ness Factor singing competition.
He said it went well, adding: “It was absolutely fabulous and it was a good turn out. There was lots of help from the community.”
The self-employed car mechanic said they raised £1842 over the two days and he was also planning a fundraising day in Muir of Ord Village Hall on October 28 from 10am.
As well as Mr Matheson, the other finalists are Stephen Laurie, Lisa Gray, Jennifer Urquhart, Fiona Clark, Donna Fraser, Andrew Gill, Caitlin Farquhar and Moira Black.
They are all hoping to sing their way to stardom at this year’s charity show next month – the winner will take home a prize of a performance slot at Belladrum.
