Thank you!

Thank to everyone who attended our conference on Friday! We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.

The weather was exceptional, the company was excellent and the food was exquisite. Thank you to the L'Horizon Hotel and all their staff for a perfect day.  Thank you to Delta Events for enhancing all of the speakers' performances and ensuring a smooth hassle free event for us. 

Thanks to all our fabulous and knowledgeable speakers. Including David Hodson, OBE KC (Hons) MCIArb, who said "May I thank you hugely for all your incredible organisation, with your colleagues, for the conference which I very much enjoyed.  It was superbly organised.  I've been speaking at professional conferences for many years and I can truly say that training organisations with full-time staff doing it as a full-time job would have struggled with all that you did both over the weekend and in the weeks and months before.  No wonder it is so hugely popular.  Thank you again."

Thank you to our sponsors: 1GC Family, Evelyn Partners, OurFamilyWizard and Taylor Rose MW   

We held a raffle for our charity of the year Tiny Seeds and raised an incredible £2,320 so once again thank you to everyone for buying tickets.  

A huge thanks especially to Lizzie but also to Anna for all their hard work. We couldn't do it without you!
