Orkney's Christmas Tractor Run 2023 aids local charities Crossroads Care Orkney and Home-Start Orkney. These good folk spend a lot of time, money and creative energy to drive their tractors around the Orkney Mainland raising money for fellow humans in need. Our blessings to every one of them. This is what makes Orkney such a lovely place to live.
The charity run last year raised over £28,000 for two local charities. So far in 2023, the tractor run has raised over £14,000. Donations are taken until the 12th of January at Just Giving.
