Alpacas ready to join conference calls to raise money for charity

Marie Curie is offering a virtual meeting with a difference.

People working from home can now pay to have an alpaca join their team meeting, raising money for the end-of-life charity.

Many people are still working from home and having to take part in virtual team meetings.

Businesses can now help raise urgently needed funds for Marie Curie by inviting Bob Crosbie, from Bobcat Alpacas in Edinburgh, to host a 20-minute virtual tour and 'meet and greet' with his herd, in return for a suggested donation of £100.

Money raised by the alpacas will help Marie Curie provide expert care and support to people at the end of their lives, and their families.

Fiona Bushby, Marie Curie community fundraiser, said: “We can’t thank Bob enough for the support he has given us over the years, and now in our time of need, he is stepping up again.

“I hope lots of businesses get behind this fun idea – what a great way to liven up your next team meeting.”
