Lawyers from Dentons’ Edinburgh and Glasgow offices took part in the 2026 LandAid SleepOut in Edinburgh on 5 March, spending a night outdoors in the capital to raise funds to help tackle youth homelessness.
The Dentons team set an initial fundraising target of £1400 and have so far raised £3000.
Dentons’ disputes partner Philip Knight joined colleagues Liam McCabe, Lauren Fowler, Fraser Crombie, Emily Zehetmayr, Jordan Houston and Robbie McElroy in sleeping outside Dynamic Earth, Edinburgh’s planetarium and science centre, as part of the nationwide fundraising initiative organised by LandAid, the property-industry charity working to end youth homelessness in the UK.
Philip said: “Spending a night outdoors in the cold and rain was a powerful reminder that, for us, this was a temporary challenge.
“For many young people across the UK, the reality of homelessness is far harsher and far longer. We are proud to stand alongside colleagues across the property industry to support LandAid’s vital work and to help raise funds that will provide safe places to stay and meaningful support for those who need it most.”
