International Highland Cattle Show - Pollok Park

MASScot attended the International Highland Cattle Show at Pollok Park this weekend.

The MASScot team set up stall at the event offering face painting and a raffle for event goers. The face painting team of Leigh and Ruth worked tirelessly all day providing kids with a great new look. From a tiger to spiderman they covered all the bases.

Whilst there MASScot gathered more signatures for our sunscreen petition in which we hope to persuade the government to drop VAT on sunscreen from 20 to 5%. Currently sunscreen is classed as a cosmetic product int he UK  and is therefore subjected to 20% VAT and those attending Pollok Park had no hesitation in signing our petition for such a worthy cause.

The Sun also made what has been rare appearance recently on Saturday and thanks to the announcer at the Cattle Show, MASScot were able to hand out some free sunscreen and sun safety advice to all who needed it, which many people took us up on. 

A big thanks must go to our volunteer Ruth Duncan who so kindly dedicated her time on a Saturday to helping out MASScot.
