Andrew Castle launches initiative to capture family stories

TV, tennis star and family man Andrew Castle is helping Grant’s whisky find families celebrating something special this year and offering them the chance to have their family party and stories captured for generations to come, in a prize worth over £3,000.

With an enviable family history of his own, ancestry enthusiast Andrew has teamed up with Grant’s, the world’s oldest family-owned blended Scotch whisky, to offer two lucky families a visit from the Grant’s Get Together Team. This team of professional photographers and videographers will capture both time-honoured memories and the latest stories for the family to keep and share for years to come. The team will also provide a memory book to hold even more unique family tales.

Andrew says, “Family means everything to me and I’ve been lucky enough to delve into my own ancestry, something I am particularly passionate about, and discover family stories and members that have made me make sense of my own life. This is important and as Grant’s whisky has a rich family heritage of their own, spanning five generations, we felt an initiative like this would help people find out more about their past and present family stories.

“This competition is a fantastic way to make sure family history is kept alive. Simply go to grantswhisky.com and tell us in a few words what family get-togethers you have coming up. Whether it’s a wedding, birthday or anniversary, these are the occasions when stories are told and made, so enter now to create something really special for your family in the present, and in the future".

The first 20 entries will receive a bottle of Grant’s Family Reserve whisky to help make their family celebrations go with a swing. Entries close on Sunday 7th October 2012.
