Chocolate Fountain Aberdeen

Chocolate Indulgence Aberdeen

A four-tiered chocolate fountain courtesy of Chocolate Indulgence will tempt shoppers to a range of tasty chocolate-coated sweet kebabs in the Bon Accord
St. Nicholas shopping centre this weekend (Saturday 8 and Sunday 9 April 2006), to help raise money for local charity Kids Action’s ‘Orphans’ Project’.
In an ongoing bid to help Kids Action, whose mission is to help orphaned children in Malawi and Sierra Leone, the Bon Accord St. Nicholas Shopping Centre is hosting the chocolate fountain in the central mall of the lower atrium this weekend, to try to tempt shoppers to indulge while giving money to a worthy cause.

Orphans Project

The Bon Accord St. Nicholas shopping centre is also set to play a further generous role in supporting the ‘Orphans’ Project’ in a few weeks’ time, when two teenage girls from the Kids Action orphanage in Sierra Leone will come to Aberdeen under the financial support of Rotary Club of Aberdeen St Fittick, and be treated to two days of pampering in the shopping centre.

Mariama and Rosemarie’s visit to Aberdeen, organised by Kids Action in conjunction with the Rotary Club of Aberdeen St. Fittick, will last two weeks. During this time they will attend several schools in the area, as well as being pampered at the shopping centre, to give them a taste of teenage life in Aberdeen.

Free Make Over Boots

On Monday 17th April, the first day of the Orphans Visit, Mariama (15) and Rosemarie (11), will be given the opportunity to select free outfits from Dorothy Perkins, New Look and Logo, shoes from Barratts and jewellery from Angelic Orchids, with lunch provided by the centre’s café, The Food Court. On the second day, Thursday 27th April they will each be treated to a free make-over in Boots and a hair styling session in Espiro, before being escorted to the centre management suite at the end of the day, to meet the shopping centre staff, enjoy refreshments and collect all their gifts.

Kids Action

Director of Kids Action, Alastair Brodie, explains: “The visit to Scotland will be very exciting for the girls from Sierra Leone as they will have the opportunity to meet, exchange ideas and socialise with Aberdonian children. In addition to this, to be able to offer them a shopping trip, complete with gifts of clothing, jewellery, make-overs and styling sessions, is really more than we could ever have hoped for, and for this, we are extremely grateful to all the 17 shops taking part from the Bon Accord St. Nicholas Shopping centre.”

Centre manager Frank Sutherland says: “We are very happy to be hosting the chocolate fountain this weekend to raise money for this important cause, and delighted to be able to offer Rosemarie and Mariama the opportunity to select free outfits from Dorothy Perkins, New Look and Logo, shoes from Barratts, free make-over in Boots, a hair styling session in Espiro and much more. On behalf of the Bon Accord St. Nicholas shopping centre, we wish Kids Action the very best with their ‘Orphans’ Project’ and we look forward to seeing the girls in the centre on the 17th and 27th of April.”
