A spokesman for the charity said: “Kidney Kids Scotland are absolutely overwhelmed by the support we have received this year.
“Local businesses have really got behind this campaign by encouraging staff to dress in the kidney kids colours of blue and yellow or by selling raffle tickets, organising cake bakes, fitness challenges, dress down days and selling Kidney Kids merchandise.
“The Kidney Kids team are so grateful to everyone for their hard work, generosity and enthusiasm which has helped make this year’s campaign such a success.
