Families who are unable to go on holiday will get a “once-in-a-lifetime experience” after Celtic FC purchased a holiday home at Wemyss Bay Holiday Park.

The Celtic FC Foundation has launched its new Holiday Home Project, which will provide free of charge holidays, to families and individuals who otherwise could not afford one.

The luxury caravan is fully equipped with everything required for a stress-free getaway, with entertainment passes and access to the onsite football pitch, play area and swimming pool. 

Guests will also be provided with food and essentials so that there is no financial barrier for those visiting.

The holiday home will provide much needed respite for families or individuals who are experiencing illness, providing care for their loved ones, or have just come through a stressful period in their lives.

Celtic FC Foundation chief executive Tony Hamilton has thanked the charity’s supporters for making the new project possible.

He said: “This holiday home will allow us to offer many families in our communities a chance to have a break with their children.

“It’s only possible because of the generosity of our supporters and partners across the world, and we are very grateful to everyone who has contributed.

“Like the Sensory Room, we know that demand will be exceptionally high to have access to this holiday home, and we’re looking forward to having the first family in next month.”
