BTO lawyers raise money to support young homeless
Lawyers from BTO are taking part in the LandAid SleepOut tonight in Glasgow to raise money to help support young people who are homeless.
The team – Mark Colquhoun, Peter Graham, Carly Mills, Charlie Eadie and Lucy Ferguson – are raising funds for these young homeless people so that they might have a safe, warm and secure home.
They’ll be sleeping on cardboard in Buchanan Galleries car park, Glasgow, to get a very small insight into what it is like for those who have no choice but to sleep rough night after night.
Last year, an estimated 121,000 young people approached their council as they were homeless or at risk of homelessness. This is a 40 per cent rise in five years.
