A THANK YOU MESSAGE FROM IAIN KING

"I have been overwhelmed by the response and the messages I have received since my departure for my new role as Soccer Academies Manager at Rangers FC was announced.
"On this platform, my LinkedIn and my Facebook it has all been very humbling.
"I will get around to answering every one of them personally in time but as I get ready for my final week for now I just wanted to say a huge thank you to every player, coach, parent, friend and yes, even the referees who left me in tears with such kind words.

📚 BOOK SIGNING TODAY! 💙

Join us TODAY from 2:00–3:00 p.m. at The Ability Collective for a special book signing with local author and mental health advocate Mary P. MacDonald.

Mary will be here to talk about her inspiring book, Let It Be, share her story, and connect with readers. Copies of the book will also be available for purchase and signing.

After living with mental illness for 48 years, Mary draws on her own experiences—both the good and the difficult—to share personal insights, wisdom and poetry throughout Let It Be. Her hope is that the book can help increase understanding, awareness and acceptance while encouraging others to become their own advocates.

💙 Come meet Mary, hear her story, and pick up a signed copy of Let It Be.
