Huge shoutout to Stuart Turner and Richard Ford who have followed us around over the last couple of days to get some new photos to update our website.

We’re all looking forward to seeing the professional images!

Happy Friday everyone! Hope you're all enjoying your day in the sunshine! 😎

We've had a busy couple of weeks and managed to miss a roundup or two, so hold on to your saddles for this week's roundup rodeo! 🤠

We had a couple of events to celebrate our 9th birthday. Sam, Paul, Tom and Ben hosted a Property Day at Doncaster Races on one of the hottest days of the year. Despite the race timing being brought forward, our guests had a great day in the sunshine!

That same weekend, we held a BBQ at WATH-UPON-DEARNE RUGBY UNION FOOTBALL CLUB for all our staff and families to attend. It was great to see our team across and celebrating with us in the sun.

We have also recently become sponsors of the Property Catalyst Club held in Leeds. We attended the recent session en-masse, with Sam delivering an introductory speech. That same day, we went along to Wath Academy's Academy Awards at the Sheffield City Hall where we sponsored an award. Spectacular night yet again!

This week, Sam and Paul attended a fantastic day with Handlesbanken at Rotherham Golf Club in the glorious sunshine! A very sticky, but very successful round!

And finally, today Ben has been out to network with the goats and the guys from Barnsley & Rotherham Chamber of Commerce. He hasn't brought us a new office mascot though, which is disappointing.

Hope you all have a fantastic weekend - and come on England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

As you may have seen, we celebrated our 9th birthday this week and if you ask Sam and Paul about their journey from start up to now, there's been lots of help from many people along the way.

We decided now was a good time to reflect on start ups by talking to some of our business connections about their start up journey and how they can help anyone embarking on their own path to starting a business.

Over the coming weeks look out for collaborations with awmedia.marketing LTD, Barnsley & Rotherham Chamber of Commerce, Gravitate Accounting, IT Desk, Legacy Financial, Silkstone Consultants and our very own Anna from our HR Consultancy arm.

Watch this space - videos will start to be released from next week!
