Supporting Scottish Charity
In Summer 2017 Season the Glasgow Energy and Utilities Football Event saw the sector well represented by a number of companies who combined manged to raise over £3,500 for their chosen charities across Scotland.
The Sector Champions, AVIVA, raised an impressive £1,500 for their charity EDICT.
As like the other seasons, Business Fives has once again committed themselves to awarding the winning team with a bumper donation. The bumper donation will go to the winning teams chosen charity and will be 10 per cent of the event’s revenue. The extra donation could make a huge difference to the work that their chosen charity does.
The previous four seasons of Business Fives have seen more than 400 companies take part in the events across Scotland and have raised over £42,000 for a number of different charities.

Business Fives has been running the five-a-side corporate events for football-loving professionals since 2016 and is now entering its fifth season this summer. For the first time Business Fives is giving professionals from five Scottish cities a chance to compete against each other for a place in the grand final taking place on Wednesday the 26th September in Edinburgh.

We’ve been really impressed at the charitable efforts from the sector that has lived up to it’s reputation of having communities at the heart of their work. Given the mix of companies we’ve had involved it promises to be another good networking opportunity for the industry.”
