It’s In the Can

Gaining exposure for the generous philanthropy of the Aberdeen Standard Investments Charitable Foundation is heart-warming…. whether it was getting Chief Exec Martin Gilbert into painting overalls or promoting the work of Wings for Warriors which helps wounded veterans gain their pilot’s licence – watch our video about the charity here:
