Glasgow’s St. Enoch Centre has raised over £12,000 for Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity - thanks to the success of several fundraising events which took place in the centre over the last 12 months.
Fundraising activities including a prize draw to win a Mini Electric worth £29,000 and festive events including SEN Santa sessions, present wrapping classes and “Meet Santa Experience” were just some of the events that contributed to the grand total raised for Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity.
St. Enoch Centre’s staff also participated in a static cycling challenge to support the young patients across Scotland.
