“Would you like a duck?” was the question asked in Princes Street Gardens at the Church of Scotland’s Heart & Soul event. Rarely were the ducks less than enthusiastically received (together with sweeties and WPCS leaflets). “Why ducks?” was frequently asked, opening the door to explaining a basic chaplaincy fundamental: under the surface a lot can be going on and chaplaincy is there to recognise that and to help and support.
250 ducks found new homes and, at the time of writing, it remains unknown whether one found it’s intended home with Princess Anne.
