The Scottish Association of Meat Wholesalers (SAMW) raised £10,000, which will be split between four charities, in a charity auction at its recent annual conference and dinner, held in Glasgow.
SAMW president, Andy McGowan said: “We’re delighted to have been able to support four such worthy charities this year, thanks to the generous contributions made by our members and annual dinner guests.
“This year’s charities were all endorsed by our executive committee, recognising some important links between the four charities we selected and individual members and our sponsors who have been supported by them in the past few years.
This year’s charities were:
- British Heart Foundation Scotland (£4,000)
- PANS PANDAS UK (£2,000)
- The Royal Scottish Agricultural Benevolent Institution (RSABI) (£2,000)
- St Giles Hospice (£2,000)
