Alan Mathieson and Michael Steven delivered the hamper for the Wick ambulance station, keeping to social distancing rules, while their U17 team-mates Lewis Gallagher and William Cannop did the honours in Thurso.

A club statement said: "We would like to thank not only the Scottish Ambulance Service for all their hard work but all key workers who have worked extremely hard throughout these difficult times. A big thank you to you all."
