Glasgow Lunch

The annual Glasgow Lunch has become a major fixture in the social calendar over the past 17 years and we are delighted that it continues to be well supported by organisations from all sectors of the property and construction industry.  As always we are indebted to all those who attend each year for their valuable support.

Following the drinks reception representatives from this year's nominated charities addressed the audience before lunch, Willie Young then entertained as our guest speaker and John McKelvie conducted our auction with considerable vigour.  We are also very grateful to our sponsors and other supporters - Barclays Corporate, Emtec, Sound & Vision, Hilton Glasgow, CCB Printing and to Peter Baines our MC.

This year's lunch was held on Friday 25th March 2011 at the Glasgow Hilton and despite the current economic climate attendance continues to rise.  We raised over £50,000 and these monies will go to the National Deaf Children's Society to purchase specialist equipment to access education and entertainment technologies, Scottish Autism for the provision of a "SMART Table"; a multi-touch, multi-user interactive learning centre for primary pupils, CHAS for the renewal of TV's and bedroom equipment at Rachel and Robin Houses, Dancebase for sound & lighting equipment, Fare in Easterhouse for equipment and Glasgow Playschemes.

The 2012 lunch will be held on Friday 23rd March 2012 at the Glasgow Hilton, booking forms are now available to download here
