The grand total raised for all local charities chosen by Digby Brown staff

Staff from Digby Brown were proud to make a real difference in their communities last year raising a massive £51,976.46 for local causes.

The grand total was raised during 2023 by people from across the firm’s seven offices who engaged in a variety of different fundraising events and initiatives throughout the year.

Notable efforts included 20 runners from Glasgow, Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Ayr who tackled the Great Scottish Run, and Inverness-based Ewen Reid who took on a unique Advent Calendar challenge running 10k every day in December until Christmas.

Staff from Kirkcaldy, Dundee, Ayr and Aberdeen also donned their running shoes taking on the Kiltwalk challenge while the Glasgow and Edinburgh offices pulled out all the stops with bake sales, potluck lunches and quiz nights.

Kirsten Smith, Corporate Social Responsibility Manager at Digby Brown, said: “We are delighted with the fantastic amount of money raised last year.

“The dedication shown by staff for their chosen charities highlights just how much supporting our communities matters to our people.

“It makes their efforts, and these partnerships, even more special.”

Fraser Oliver, the firm’s Chief Executive, added: “We are a firm with very clear and simple, but powerful, values and we believe that if you can do good then you should do good.

“It has always mattered to our people to work together as one team to fundraise for causes close to their hearts – and the amount raised last year is nothing short of remarkable.

“Our commitment to making a positive impact in our local communities is unwavering by engaging in CSR activities nearly every week to help people beyond the courtroom.

“Sincere congratulations to all who took part or arranged things behind the scenes - a very well done to all.”

Digby Brown is already setting up new adventurous challenges for the year ahead and following today’s announcement the firm can now confirm its seven local charity partners for 2024 are:
