A housebuilder has raised more than £20,000 for Glasgow Children's Hospital Charity after a series of fundraising challenges.
Miller Homes West Scotland employees undertook a 22-mile Mighty Stride Kilt Walk which raised £15,201.49, and an active step count challenge which raised £5,928 to raise a total of £21,129.49 in funds.
For every mile an employee took during the Active step count challenge, Miller Homes pledged to donate £1 to the children's charity.
Glasgow Children's Hospital each year treats more than 200,000 babies, children, and young people from all over Scotland.
Andrew McArthur, regional operations director for Miller Homes Scotland West, said: "The Scotland West team certainly knows how to accept a challenge, and this charity fundraiser was no different from others we've done throughout the years.
"Our regional team, whether they work in the land, sales, technical, in our offices, or on-site, took this incentive in their stride, raising tens of thousands for Glasgow Children's Hospital Charity, which does so much work for families and children in need."
William McGowan, head of partnerships at Glasgow Children's Hospital Charity, added: "We are incredibly grateful to the team from Miller Homes Scotland West for taking on this amazing challenge to raise funds for our young patients.
"The funds raised will help to support babies, children, and young people in Scotland's biggest children's hospital."
