Thanks from Haverhill Scout and Guide Building Committee

/in , /by

We were delighted to receive this message of thanks from the Haverhill Scout and Guide Building Committee for donating towards their building fund. Adams Harrison work closely with our communities in Saffron Walden, Haverhill and Sawston and are keen to support local initiatives for betterment within those communities.

We would like to thank you for the very generous donation of £1000 you have made to the Haverhill Scout and Guide HQ building fund, via HaverSports. We have now received the money. This money is greatly appreciated and will be used to improve the facilities and benefit all the local groups that access the site.

Thank you also for all the support you have provided HaverSport in the past, that has enabled fundraising. All of this contributed to the building project and has enabled us to build the amazing new building we now have. This has made a massive difference to the Scouts and Guides in Haverhill as well as other community groups.

With very best wishes,
Abi

On behalf of the Haverhill Scout and Guide building committee.

We were delighted to attend a student careers fair at Castle Manor Academy on Thursday 26th June.

Students from year 7 to year 10 attended the fair.

A number of different representatives from Adams Harrison attended at different times during the day from the Managing Partner, Jennifer Carpenter (pictured here), to Trainee Solicitors, Caitlin Longland (pictured here) and Briony Dodson. Also attending were Luke Gardiner and Semra Ramadan, both qualified solicitors, and Louise Taghi who is the Practice Manager. Each was able to offer a different perspective to students, from the entry routes into the profession and qualifications required to become a qualified lawyer, to what a day in the life of a solicitor would look like.

All staff from Adams Harrison were impressed by the enthusiasm and interest from the students, and their level of engagement.

Anton Bilinski and Luke Gardener represented Adams Harrison at the Samuel Ward Academy Student Careers Fair on 22nd September 2023.

Expert legal advice and services from Adams Harrison Solicitors in Haverhill and Sawston.

Over 1200 students from all year groups attended the event and were able to ask questions at the Adams Harrison stand and about 35 other local businesses and further education establishments.

Luke commented that

the students were all enthusiastic and interested, from the youngest who often had a very clear idea of what they wanted to do when they grew up, to the older students who were more circumspect and were considering all options.

Samuel Ward Academy Mock Interview Day

/in /by

We were delighted to be involved in supporting Samuel Ward Academy’s ‘Mock Interview Day’ with year 10 pupils on Wednesday 22nd March 2023.

Samuel Ward Academy Mock Interview Day

Louise Taghi, our Practice Manager, saw 7 students. She evaluated their CV’s and personal statements and performed a mock interview with them. After the interview Louise gave feedback to the student and returned a short written report on their performance.

Louise said “The students were well prepared and, although attending a face to face interview was nerve racking they engaged well and provided informative and interesting answers to my questions. I was impressed by the approach of the students I interviewed.”

Jacqui Singleton, Careers Practitioner at Samuel Ward Academy, said “Today turned out to be such a positive day for so many of our students. As nervous and anxious as they may feel before hand, they will look back on the experience in due course and realise how inspiring it has been.

These things don’t happen on their own, its takes support and commitment from people like Louise, and for that both myself and the school community are grateful.”
