Stars get on their bikes for SAMH
Posted by Andrew in General, Photography, video on May 19th, 2010
Today we were honoured to join cycling stars Sir Chris Hoy and Graeme Obree and comedienne Ruby Wax, launching a £1million fund-raising target to help our client SAMH, Scotland’s leading mental health charity, raise money for essential community projects.
Along with our very own Paul McStay, our video and photography teams were on hand at the SAMH Office and Parkhead Football Stadium, home to Celtic FC, to capture the event on film for a promotional video for SAMH.
Four-times Olympic Gold medallist, Sir Chris Hoy, is Ambassador for SAMH for a second year and has often spoken of the importance of good mental health. One of Chris’ sporting heroes, former cycling world champion and world record holder Graeme Obree – a.k.a. The Flying Scotsman – lives with depression caused by bipolar disorder, and comedienne and writer Ruby Wax also lives with depression.
