Rubhach Merchandise

Point show has launched a range of Rubhach merchandise. https://www.tshirtstudio.com/marketplace/rubhach

Point as we know it is a beautiful place and it is interspersed with villages from Aignish to Portnaguran. More importantly it is populated with individuals young and old who all are identified as being a Rubhach. Something to be proud of! Due to the location of villages and modern living we might not see each other or indeed get to know each other as often as we would like. The Point Show is a shining example of when the Rubhachs congregate and support a significant event and without their support, would not continue to be the success that it is. We continue to strive to be clever about raising funds and one of the local members of the community has come up with an excellent idea.

An opportunity to support the Point Show Organisation which is a registered charity but also rejoice in who we are by purchasing unique clothing which celebrates our identity but will also ensure a small part of that purchase will be paid directly to the Point show in the form of a commission.

The clothing can be purchased directly via the T-Shirt Studio Marketplace website. The Trust Pilot Reviews are excellent as is the quality of the goods. There is a multitude of items from Tote bags to Bobble Hats and water bottles too! More importantly they all celebrate who we are and where we come. The clothing represents excellent value and we have found that the embroidery is excellent for heavier items of clothing such as hoodies.

If you were worried about Christmas, worry no more. From a consumer protection perspective you will be dealing with T shirt Studio who are a multi-national organisation although I anticipate everybody will be over the moon. As a RUBHACH it denotes that we live on or are from the Point Peninsula and we should rejoice that fact more often than we do. An identity to be proud of in purchasing one or more of these unique gifts you will be supporting the Point Show with a small contribution for each purchase. At the moment we are only able to provide an online marketplace.

If we can ask a favour of you and share this with your friends and facebook groups and other forms of social media if you can so we can access as many Rubhachs as we possibly can from on-line and we can seek to look at the potential for a local outlet.

These unique products can be viewed and purchased via the T Shirt Studio Market Place via the below link. https://www.tshirtstudio.com/marketplace/rubhach
