A prominent Glasgow construction firm has raised £30,000 for charities in the area amid the ongoing cost of living crisis.

City Building's gesture, benefitting 10 charities, aims to provide much-needed support across the city.

The donations were split among Action for Children, which received £10,000 and Breast Cancer Now and Prostate Cancer Scotland, each getting £5,000.

Breast Cancer Now and Prostate Cancer Scotland were chosen as part of the awareness and fundraising work between the organisations and employees.

The other charities were Homeless Kindness Street Team, Kennishead Larder, Sandyhills Larder, Pollok Pantry, North West Pantry, Ruchazie Pantry, and Wheatley Foundation for Pantry Network.

Alan Burns, executive director at City Building, said: "As a company deeply rooted in the Glasgow community, we recognise the importance of giving back and supporting those who need it most.

"City Building’s commitment is entirely led by our compassionate workforce, and we hope that our contributions can help alleviate some of the burdens they face.

"As one of the largest employers in the area we understand our role in driving change and having our staff lead these donations ensure that we are help causes that are making the biggest difference in our communities."

Mandy Morgan, chief executive of the Scottish Pantry Network, thanked City Building for their help and donation.

She said: "Their support means a lot to The Scottish Pantry Network and its communities.

"Together, we're making a better tomorrow where every little bit counts.

"With City Building by our side, we're confident we can make real changes that make people's lives better."

Mae Bell, information and advice manager at Prostate Scotland, said: "We are sincerely appreciative of City Building’s wonderful donation.

"This will make a huge difference to our ability to provide information, support, and awareness-raising activities for those impacted by prostate cancer and disease."
