A KINTORE dad who has dedicated the last three years to raising money for the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) received a hero?s welcome as he arrived home last weekend.
Family, friends and supporters all came out to greet the man who, against all the odds, had mastered the wilderness that is the world?s tallest mountain.
On a mission to raise money for the charity, Neil McDonald from Kintore, has tackled the tallest mountains in Europe, South America and Asia, but now, having raised in excess of ?111,000 for JDRF, he is ready to hang up his hat.
Upon his arrival in Aberdeen Neil said: ?I?m just relieved to be home.?
