Thanks to the generous support of Scotmid’s colleagues, members and customers, we are making brain health visible, accessible and achievable for everyone.

#BigBrainTour

Babs will tour towns and communities across Scotland, helping people of all ages take steps to protect their brain health, from teaching children healthy habits to supporting adults in small everyday changes.

On Wednesday, Scott Mitchell and pupils from Hillwood Primary School were the first to meet Babs and try our new brain health activities, designed to educate, inspire and get everyone talking about brain health.

Babs is not just any inflatable, she is a giant, walk-through brain named in honour of the late Dame Barbara Windsor, who inspired so many by sharing her dementia story.

That’s a wrap on this year’s Kiltwalks – and what a year it’s been! Thank you to everyone who joined us along the way.
