8 the advertizer t: 01505 613340 07731 923970 e: info@advertizer.co.uk Megan’s Marchers raises a phenomenal £23,000 for CHAS 80 family and friends did the Kilt Walk from Glasgow Green to Balloch Country Park on Sunday 30th April. A wonderful day was had by all and it was certainly banter over blisters adding to the brilliant atmosphere on the day! Lochwinnoch Primary School did their very own Kilt Walk in the school grounds whereby pupils walked for the duration of the school day donning a touch of tartan. Our CHAS charity night was held on Friday 5th May in Lochwinnoch Bowling Club. Music was by the fantastic local band ‘Who’s Town’, delicious buffet by Jen Catering and a grand raffle with some amazing prizes! We were delighted to have Claire from CHAS in attendance for presentation of our cheque for the phenomenal sum of £23,000. A legacy indeed! Also in attendance were Alison and Rona from Robin House in Balloch, both of whom were a tremendous support to us a very difficult time in our life, and whom our older 2 girls, Rebecca & Katie still regularly talk about due to the fun arts and crafts they did with them. This £23,000 cheque is enough to keep the arts and crafts team going for 6 months which is just amazing! The Smiley family would like to say a massive thank-you to everyone who donated, your love and support has been invaluable and uplifting. Join the Fight against Heart Disease and Wear It. Beat It.

Legal Blog by Isabella McKerrow, Affinity Family Law Grand Parents Rights To See Grand Children Grandparents have no automatic right to see their grandchildren, despite having a biological connection. Their ability to see or have contact with their grandchildren is by virtue of the children’s parents allowing it. Family relations can breakdown or parties can separate or divorce and difficulties can arise where one spouse refuses to allow the other spouses to see the children or have limited contact to the children. This can impact on grandparents. Often the separated spouse does not want the parents of the other spouse to see the grandchildren. While grandparents have no automatic right in law to see their grandchildren, they are able to make an application to the court to acquire such rights. Under the Children (Scotland) Act 1995 anyone with an interest in the child/children (there does not have to be any biological connection) can apply to the court for an order for parental rights and responsibilities, contact or residence of the child/children. The court will grant such an order where it is in the children’s best interest to do so. The court will also take into account the views of the child where it is reasonably practicable to do so. Where the grandparent or person applying for the order has developed a close relationship with the child/children the case will be stronger and the orders sought more likely to be granted. Where there are bad relations between the grandparents and their children (the parents of the grandchildren) the court may be required to balance the benefit to the child/children of maintaining contact with the grandparents with the detriment of exposing the child/children to conflict between the grandparents and the children’s parents.
