The event included a fancy-dress competition with employees dressing up as Still Game characters, The Addams Family, Top Gun characters, Men in Black, Three Blind Mice, cowboys and more.

The best costume prize was presented to the Finance Department, who dressed as Gomez, Uncle Fester, Wednesday and Cousin Itt from The Addams Family.

A Halloween cake sale was held in the morning and at lunchtime, employees were treated to some pizza whilst they participated in a range of games to raise funds for SAMH. The games included a ‘balloon room’ which saw employees pop balloons to find those with winning tickets hidden inside and toss the coin.

A raffle was held, with the lucky winner receiving a voucher for an overnight stay for two at the voco Grand Central Hotel in Glasgow.

Gordon Cunningham, managing director, Clark Contracts, added: “Having reached a fundraising milestone for SAMH earlier this year, with over £20,000 raised for the charity, it is great to see our employees continue to support our fundraising efforts. This annual event is always enjoyed by employees, and it was great to see so many get involved in the fancy dress competition and games.”

Rachel Bottomley, account manager at SAMH, said: “Colleagues at Clark Contracts have shown incredible generosity and commitment, and we are profoundly thankful. 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.”
