Our Charity Work
ESPC is passionate about supporting charities, both nationally and locally. Below you can find out our upcoming and past fundraising and how to contact us if you have a charity project you'd like us to get involved in.
We are currently partnering with local charity, Rock Trust. Founded in 1990, they work to support homeless young people in Scotland and provide them with a safe space, meals, workshops and resources to help them move towards a better future.
Their mission is to end youth homelessness, and all of us at ESPC are committed to spending the next year doing what we can to help them achieve it.
We have lots of exciting things planned for the year ahead including our annual charity quiz, volunteering, bake sales, physical challenges, you name it, we’ll give it a shot to raise money for our incredible charity partner.
Annual Charity Quiz
Each year we host a charity quiz with our member firms in aid of a chosen charity. In 2024, we ran this in aid of our current charity partner, Rock Trust raising over £2,000.
In 2022 and 2023, we decided to support Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY). Both years combined we have raised over £4,250 for this amazing charity. CRY is dedicated to preventing sudden cardiac deaths in young people through funding research, raising awareness, organising cardiac screening sessions, and supporting bereaved families and those diagnosed with a life-threatening cardiac conditions.
The 2024 winners of the charity quiz were a team made up of people representing three of our member firms - Warners, Anderson Strathern and ELP Arbuthnott McClanachan.
Giraffe About Town
In July and August 2022, ESPC sponsored its own giraffe as part of Edinburgh Zoo's Giraffe About Town. Our giraffe was designed by local designer Megan Hicklin from Neon Magpie, and featured Edinburgh's skyline against a beautiful night sky. All the money raised went towards conservation projects ran by Edinburgh Zoo.
You can learn more about Giraffe About Town here, and more about our giraffe and designer in the video below:
Recent donations
There are a number of local charities who we are delighted to have raised money for and made recent donations such as Simpsons Special Care Babies, The Junction, St Columba's Hospice and Social Bite.
