Our Glasgow Team Enjoys Drinks, Nibbles & Great Company
At HF, we believe that the strongest teams are built not just on shared goals, but on shared moments. That belief was on full display last Friday afternoon, as our Glasgow branch took full advantage of the sunshine with a relaxed “Drinks and Nibbles” event – bringing together colleagues from across our many divisions for a well-earned end-of-week wind-down.
With the sun shining overhead, team members enjoyed a well-stocked spread of pizza, sandwiches, crisps and more – accompanied by an ice-cold beer, a glass of wine, or a non-alcoholic alternative. What really stood out, though, was the atmosphere: filled with laughter, lively conversation, and genuine camaraderie between colleagues who may not usually get the chance to connect.
With such a diverse range of services, from Electrical and Mechanical to Fire & Security, Renewable Energy, Telecommunications and Automated Controls, it means that our team are also incredibly diverse. That’s why we proudly call ourselves “A Company Well Connected.” This phrase represents more than just the technical solutions we provide. It reflects how we operate internally: united by a shared commitment to quality, safety, people, and integrity.
Our core values are at the heart of everything we do:
People – We recognise that our people are our greatest asset. Events like this give our team members a chance to relax, feel valued, and engage with one another outside of their usual work environments.
Integrity – We build trust through honesty and mutual respect, and those foundations are strengthened when colleagues are able to form genuine connections.
Quality – A positive and collaborative team environment leads to better communication, more innovation, and consistently high standards across all our projects.
Safety – While physical safety is paramount in our industry, psychological safety – feeling comfortable, included, and respected – is just as important. Casual events like these foster that sense of belonging.
When team members from different divisions connect it breaks down barriers, encourages collaboration, and reminds us all that we’re part of something bigger. We know that successful projects begin with strong relationships, and those relationships are built not only on site or in the office, but also through informal opportunities to socialise and unwind.
Thanks to everyone who helped organise the event and to all who joined us on the day – it’s these simple moments that help make HF a great place to work. Here’s to more sunny Fridays, shared laughter, and the connections that make us stronger together.
