Burns Night Ball for Storehouse
Storehouse is a charity set up by my church that aims to give hope to the people in Glasgow. We want to help those people in our city who can’t afford to look after themselves fully, providing them with food and toiletries.
Their first ever Burns Night Charity Ball on Friday was a resounding success, raising more than £2000 for the charity.

Welcome to Midnight
Five.

The ball drops and fireworks. Resolutions are made.
People scream and people kiss and is it possible to change?
Is it really truly possible to leave the past behind?
Welcome to Midnight.
