Everyday andersonbain’s work revolves around where their clients call home. Helping people to find and buy somewhere to call home is what they do.
Firmly believing that everyone should be able to call somewhere home. However, as the cost-of-living crisis remains people are being faced with incredibly hard choices to make, like going without either food or electricity. This is where the crucial work of charities like Instant Neighbour help.
Over the last 40 years, Instant Neighbour have helped provide practical help, advice & support. By supporting people on low incomes to set up a home or providing access to low-cost reuse furniture, white goods, clothing and bric-a-brac. Instant Neighbour have been able to support some of the poorest and most vulnerable people living in and around Aberdeen.
As well as their shops, Instant Neighbour offer services to truly turn a house into a home through Carpetinc and Joinerinc. Two distinct professional trade services that are accessible for everyone to use. Additionally, the charity also offers several employability experiences through volunteering opportunities across their shops, warehouse and office.
That’s why this year we’ve chosen to fundraise for Instant Neighbour during the 2026 Kiltwalk, to help further support the tremendous work they do throughout the Northeast and to help ensure everyone has the support needed to make their home their own.
Catherine McKay, Private Client Partner, andersonbain LLP, said: “Homes are at the centre of what we do. That is why we are immensely proud to support Instant Neighbour and the fantastic work they do. Their practical help makes a real difference for individuals and families across the Northeast, particularly as many people continue to face difficult cost of living pressures. By taking on the Kiltwalk, we are aiming to raise funds and awareness, so more people can have the chance to make somewhere home.”
Susan Cheyne – (Business) Development Manager, said: “Instant Neighbour is delighted to have the support of andersonbain LLP at this year’s Kiltwalk. As a small local charity, this support is incredibly important to us and vital in enabling the work we do within the community. We are living in very challenging times, and every pound raised will go directly towards our charitable work supporting local people when they need it most. We wish you all the very best of luck.”
