In 2019 the Veitchi Group through its own charity committee and the support of its staff and our amazing and extremely generous supplier group managed to raise £22,000 for our nominated charities with these cheques being distributed in 2020.
It has also been important during the Corona lockdown not to forget our regular benefactors and we donated £500 to the Rutherglen Foodbank in April and have started again on return from lockdown collecting for this charity.
Here are a few of the cheque presentations we managed to make before Corona lockdown!

Aberlour Childcare Trust - £2000 -
Whiteley's Retreat - £1000 -
Accord Hospice - £1000 -
Friends of Anchor £2000
