Over the last few months, so many of you have walked through the doors of Driftwood and had the pleasure of getting to know our very own Emma. Whether she’s served you your favourite drink, danced the night away beside you, been a shoulder to cry on, shared a laugh, or just talked absolute nonsense across the bar — one thing we know for sure is that Emma has left a mark on so many hearts.
What many of you may not know is that behind all the laughs, all the madness and all the smiles, Emma has been fighting a battle of her own. While she’s been pouring your drinks and making sure everyone around her was smiling, she has also been bravely battling cancer.
And now… our girl has FINISHED HER TREATMENT ❤️
There truly aren’t enough words to explain how unbelievably proud we are of her. To watch someone face something so difficult with the strength, humour and spirit Emma has shown has been nothing short of inspiring. She is an absolute warrior, and we honestly couldn’t love her more if we tried.
So now it’s time to do what Driftwood does best…
It’s time to PARTY 🎉
On the 6th of June, Emma and the girls will be hosting a fundraising party right here at Driftwood, raising money for various women’s charities in Glasgow, and we want every single one of you there.
This isn’t just a fundraiser. This isn’t just another night at the pub.
This is a celebration of strength. A celebration of fighting through the hardest times. A celebration of community. A celebration of loved ones. And most importantly — a celebration of Emma.
Emma and the whole Driftwood team also want everyone to know that Driftwood is more than just drinks and nights out. Driftwood is family. We’re here for the laughs, the tears, the hard days and the good ones. If you’re going through illness, struggling, or carrying something heavy, know you never have to do it alone. We are here to talk, here to listen and always here to support.
So come celebrate Emma, celebrate yourself and celebrate the people you love. Come celebrate the battles won, remember the battles fought, and let’s fill Driftwood with love, laughter and raised glasses.
We can’t wait to see you all there ❤️
