MACTAGGART & Mickel has marked the close of its 100th year by announcing it has reached its £100,000 fundraising target.
The milestone has been achieved through the generosity of colleagues and supporters across the UK, together with significant contributions from The Mickel Fund and Mac Mic Foundation.
Activities have taken place throughout the year, with teams taking part in a range of events from a 290‑mile charity cycle and two Kiltwalks to quizzes, a sleep out, a Firewalk and other challenges, raising funds for five charity partners across homelessness and cancer care.
The centenary year also included a series of legacy projects focused on investing in people, talent and the environment, from supporting young designers at The Glasgow School of Art, to helping attract new entrants into the planning profession, and beginning the creation of a 150‑acre Centenary Forest in South Ayrshire.
Colleagues across Glasgow, Edinburgh, Bristol and London played a central role in reaching the £100,000 total, with funds distributed to Maggie’s, Centrepoint, Rock Trust, 1625 Independent People, and Kindness Homeless Street Team Glasgow.
Andrew Mickel, director at Mactaggart & Mickel, said, “To reach £100,000 in our centenary year and deliver projects that invest in people, talent and the environment is something we can all be proud of. We have a long history of supporting good causes, and the enthusiasm of our teams and the generosity of our supporters have allowed us to create a legacy that will benefit communities for years to come.”
Fellow director Ross Mickel added, “The dedication shown by our team and the incredible support from partners, families and the wider Mactaggart & Mickel community has been fantastic. This achievement is not only the culmination of our centenary year, but a reflection of our century‑long commitment to our communities and a commitment that will continue well beyond our 100th year.”
