The JR Group takes steps to raise more than £5,000 for Glasgow Children's Hospital Charity

Team members from Paisley-based construction firm The JR Group donned their kilts and walking boots to trek more than 20 miles in order to raise money for The Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity.

21 members of the team took part in the Glasgow Kiltwalk, raising £5,705 in total for the charity, completing the route from Glasgow to Balloch in just over seven hours.

The Kiltwalk is a mass participation walking event that has been raising funds for Scottish charities and projects since 2016, with this year marking the fourth time that The JR Group have taken part to raise funds for a local good cause.



Gary McGregor, managing director of The JR Group, said: “Our team have always enjoyed taking part in events such as the Glasgow Kiltwalk. It’s a great way for us to challenge ourselves, is a fantastic teambuilding opportunity and is also a great way to look after our physical and mental wellbeing as a team.

“The incredible amount raised, makes it all worthwhile and we hope it goes a long way to help the vital work of Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity and makes a meaningful difference to the lives of those who the charity supports. We would like to thank all the team, family, friends, suppliers, sub-contractors and partners for their incredibly generous donations.”
