Clark Contracts recently hosted a successful Halloween fundraiser, raising over £1,000 for their nominated company charity, SAMH (Scottish Action for Mental Health).

The event, held on Friday 25th October, saw employees donning a variety of costumes, from Still Game characters to the Addams Family. The Finance Department took home the prize for best costume, with their impressive portrayal of the iconic Addams Family.

To raise funds, employees participated in a range of activities, including a Halloween cake sale and a 'balloon room' challenge. A raffle was also held, with the lucky winner receiving a voucher for a luxurious overnight stay at the voco Grand Central Hotel in Glasgow.

Their support has allowed us to reach more individuals with the resources and care they need. We appreciate their unwavering dedication and are excited to continue our impactful work together."
