North-east firm SBP Accountants and Business Advisers support Autism and Neurodiversity North Scotland
An accountancy firm has raised £6439 for a charity that supports people with autism.
SBP Accountants and Business Advisers (SBP), which has an office in Banff, supported Autism and Neurodiversity North Scotland (A-ND) as its corporate charity partner for 2024.
A-ND provides essential, life-changing care and support services to more than 230 individuals and families living with autism and neurodiversity across Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Moray and the Highlands.
With continued assistance and funding, the charity is aiming to expand its reach to more than 500 people by 2027.
SBP's fundraising efforts took place across all four of its offices, with staff enthusiastically taking part in a variety of initiatives throughout the year.
These included regular Dress Down Fridays, office bake-offs, and the always-popular Christmas Jumper Day.
Team members also got active, participating in the 2024 Kiltwalk and hosting SBP’s own internal “walkathon” to help drive donations.
The fundraising year concluded with SBP attending A-ND’s annual Think Different charity dinner.
The firm supported the event with a full table of 10, joining other attendees for a night of entertainment, raffles and auctions, all in aid of the work A-ND carries out in the region.
Managing partner at SBP John Hannah said: “We’re incredibly proud of the effort our team has put into supporting A-ND this year.
“Their work has a profound impact on individuals and families across the north of Scotland, and it has been a privilege to support such a meaningful cause.”
