Scribbler's Picnic
The Scribbler’s Picnic is a non-profit Stirling-based charity (Charity No.: SC034502), celebrating the legacy of ‘The Scribbler’ - Stirling musician, writer and teacher Graham Whitelaw - a good friend of many of those involved in the early years of the Stirling GhostWalk, and a frequent contributor to Heritage Events 'Living History' programmes at sites around Scotland. Graham was an inspirational and fun family man with a zest for life who sadly died after battling cancer in 2001.
The committee organises music-related events to raise funds for five cancer charities:
* Macmillan Cancer Support
* Marie Curie Cancer Care
* Strathcarron Hospice
* Maggie’sChildren’s
* Hospice Association

Local charities and community organisations are welcome to be involved in the event to fundraise and raise their profile.
