Super group Skipinnish is supporting an Oban fundraiser in memory of a baby who died from a little-known genetic disease.
Photographer Stephen Lawson, who was at Oban Live, told band members about five-month-old Rebecca Aitken who died in New Zealand in December, devastating her parents Jaki Aitken and Alex Johnson who are from the town.
Instead of getting paid for his professional photographs, he asked them to donate merchandise instead. Rebecca’s grandparents Edwina and Hugh Aitken have just received a bundle of Skipinnish goodies, including hoodies and CDs as prizes at a casino night they are organising with supporters at Soroba House on Saturday July 28.
