This daring event has already generated significant excitement, with £4,000 raised toward the team’s ambitious £20,000 fundraising target. The funds raised will help to provide mobile sensory units for Scotland’s largest children’s hospital, transforming the experiences of young patients and their families during challenging times.

The skydive is GRAHAM’s latest initiative in a series of impactful fundraising activities. In December, the company donated £10,000 to the charity and hosted festive events, including a Christmas Jumper Day, bake sale, tombola and a “guess the sweets in the jar” competition, raising an additional £600. Staff also supported Santa’s grotto at the hospital, with six employees volunteering as elves to spread festive cheer.

William McGowan, head of partnerships at Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity, visited GRAHAM’s Glasgow office in December to highlight how the charity’s work supports children and families. His presentation outlined why donations are vital in funding life-changing equipment, support services and innovative research.

William said: “We rely on the support and generosity of our donors, fundraisers and partners to fund life-changing equipment and support services at Scotland’s busiest children’s hospital. We are delighted to be working with GRAHAM Building North to help children and families when they need us most.”

Earlier in the partnership, GRAHAM employees from across regions united for an inter-divisional football tournament in Northern Ireland. Building North celebrated a silver plate victory, contributing £1,300 to the cause.

Chris MacLeod, regional director at GRAHAM, said: “This partnership demonstrates our commitment to supporting the outstanding efforts of Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity. We look forward to working with the charity to help them raise crucial funding and inform our workforce and supply chain about the amazing service they provide to children and families during a difficult time in their lives.”

The charity skydive promises to be a highlight of the year, combining adrenaline with altruism to further GRAHAM’s goal of meeting – and hopefully exceeding – its £20,000 target. Beyond the skydive, the team will continue its hands-on support, with volunteers preparing to help take down Easter decorations at the hospital later this year.
