Staff at construction, refurbishment and maintenance company, Clark Contracts have held their second annual foodbank collection for The Trussell Trust.
The two week drive saw collection points set up at the company’s offices in Paisley and Edinburgh and its 23 building sites in Scotland.
The firm’s first foodbank collection was held last year after being suggested by the company’s employee led Steering Group which supports local and national charities, which turned out to be a huge success.
Gordon Cunningham, Managing Director, Clark Contracts said, “It was great to support this initiative for a second year running. Following the success of last years’ collection we were keen to support the Trussell Trust again as our staff recognise the importance of the work the Trust does, especially over the festive period.”
The food collected at Clark Contracts’ head office in Paisley was delivered to Renfrewshire Foodbank’s warehouse in Renfrew whilst food collected in the company’s Edinburgh office and onsite will be delivered to local foodbanks.
