ABD decided to do things a little differently this year, with a “Golf themed” Summer Ball. The Ball was held at the picturesque venue of Wellington Barn with members of staff having the opportunity to test their crazy golf skills late into the night on the mini golf holes. The winning team even managed to win a days extra holiday for their members of staff with other guests winning Amazon vouchers.
Welcoming drinks were offered on arrival which were much needed after such a scorching day of sunshine.
Once seated, the whole room engaged in a Charity Auction. The following prizes/services were auctioned by Tom Paget and Alexander David and ABD are proud to announce that the auction managed to raise an outstanding sum of £515.00 for the fantastic charity that is the Starlight Children’s Foundation.
There were some fun and great lots on offer:
- Tim Hotchkiss and Alexander David’s garden and cleaning service – offering a lawn mowing and car cleaning service.
- David Turley’s DIY – Dave has offered one whole day of his time to help out with those DIY jobs which you simply don’t get round to doing.
- Nicola Hunt - our resident artist unveiled an original artwork which was snapped up.
- Alistair Everett in Fancy Dress – Alistair shall be wearing a fancy dress costume around the Firm’s Chippenham Office or at the Firm’s Sport’s Day.
Stay tuned for future updates as the members of staff begin carrying out their chores and tasks!
Following on from the auction, all guests had the opportunity to win several luxury raffle prizes. These included a trip for two to the Shard followed by a meal at Marco Pierre White’s City restaurant and Laurent-Perrier luxury pink champagne with two flute glasses.
All guests then indulged in a delicious 3 course dinner courtesy of Clever Chefs and went on to dance the night away on the dance floor.
Many people also took advantage of the fun photo booth by ‘striking a pose’ whilst using various different props.
