OVER £3,900 has been raised for Variety Scotland by construction firms taking part in Bellway‘s fourth annual walking football tournament.
Nine teams took part in the event, which was held at Fives Hamilton, and the top prize was scooped up by Akela Construction, closely followed by Hamilton builders, STCS.
Additional competing teams included Total Scaffolding, Tough Construction, Hood Construction, Designer Contracts, Indev and Jordan Electrics and further donations were received from Advance / BS Plumbing, WH Hamilton, Scotia Windows and Daylight Industrial Services
Marc Carty, construction secretary & mental health advocate for Bellway Homes Ltd (Scotland West), said, “We were keen to set up an event that wasn’t overly physical but still promoted mental and social being and walking football and provided a challenge. However, needless to say with all the teams on board, it’s still fairly competitive.”
Bellway has launched a national partnership with Variety, committing to fund six Sunshine Coaches by 2027.
