Great news! @SIOGorg UK Country Group has launched a Frailty Assessment and Management Toolkit today #UKOF26 @colki1983 @Dr_F_Coutinho siog.org/wp-content/uploads/…

Please send your love and support to 16 year old Skye Stout from Scotland, and don't let the ignorant bullies win. Yesterday, the official page of the Scottish club Kilmarnock women's team announced that the club had signed a contract with 16-year-old midfielder Skye Stout. A grassroots player signing her first pro contract, should have been a moment to cherish for her, however Skye was forced to endure ridicule from ignorant and disrespectful fans who began to humiliate her over her facial acne.
Things escalated to the point where the club decided to delete all posts mentioning Skye Stout in an effort to stop the bullying from haters.
