A walking football tournament has helped to raise more than £3900 for a good cause.
Organised by Bellway, the fourth annual tournament took place at Fives Hamilton in support of children's charity Variety Scotland.
Describing the idea behind the event, Marc Carty, construction secretary and 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."
