MCLAREN Packaging Group is returning as a programme sponsor of the third edition of The Distillers One of One charity auction.
Taking place this Friday (October 10), in collaboration with Sotheby’s, at Hopetoun House near Edinburgh, the landmark charity auction will bring together the Scotch Whisky industry in a shared spirit of generosity and support featuring 39 lots from 35 donor companies.
Since the initial auction in 2021, The Distillers One of One has helped raise £4.3 million, principally awarded to the Youth Action Fund, which aims to transform young people’s lives in Scotland, particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds, to reach their potential and make a positive contribution to their communities.
Michael McLaren, director of McLaren Packaging Group, said, “As a family-owned Scottish company serving the Scotch whisky industry, we feel a strong responsibility to give back. The Distillers One of One is a powerful reminder of how this industry can come together to support the next generation, and we are honoured to play our part once again.
“We consider our ongoing involvement with The Distillers One of One charity auction as a testament to our commitment to deliver a sustainable business with a positive impact on the communities within which we operate.”
