Fraser C Robb sell, hire and service garden and agricultural equipment for customers all over Scotland and have supported many local charities over its 40-year history. However, as founder Fraser Robb explains they wanted to do go one step further this year.
“We have set ourselves the challenge of creating real value for a charity this year. As well as donating funds we want to help a good cause in whatever way we can. We’re happy to offer practical support in addition to some exciting fundraising initiatives. We’ve got a number of ideas that will involve our staff and customers”.
Trossachs Search and Rescue were among a number of local charities to seek this partnership and as Stuart Ballantyne from the charity explains how they were thrilled to receive the news that they had been chosen by Fraser C Robb.

“This is a perfect start to 2016 for our charity. Right from the first meeting we have seen the enthusiasm from Fraser C Robb and are looking forward to working with them throughout the year.”
As Fraser from Fraser C Robb explains the partnership has got off to a very positive start.
“Speaking to Trossachs Search & Rescue and hearing about their CPR classes we immediately signed up to one for all of our team, and will be arranging another to offer to our customers. We are pleased also to have already helped them with maintenance of their mobile medical unit vehicle and are planning a number of fundraising activities throughout the year.
"We have also pledged to donate £5 to Trossachs Search and Rescue for each Mountfield lawnmower that we sell in 2016.”
