Celebrating International Women's Day 2017

In celebration of International Women's Day 2017 we asked our female strong workforce about their own celebrations.

The questions that got everyone's mind working were: what is your (or one of your) greatest achievements and, looking to the future - what is your ambition?

Looking through everyone's answers proves what a diverse and strong group of women we have in our Winston Solicitors team. We feel it is important to recognise and celebrate achievements. Travel, careers and family seemed to be common themes.

Anna: Greatest achievement - getting an A in a level maths. I failed the mock and my teacher told me I was going to fail the actual exam. I remember thinking in that moment I'm either going to fail or I can show her.....I chose the latter. Ambition - I'm walking 1000 miles throughout this year to raise money for SMA (Spinal Muscular Atrophy) - finishing that at the moment feels ambitious!!!

Amanda: I worked abroad for a short period of time and I'd like learn to speak Hebrew better.

Katrina: Becoming a partner . . . and I'd like to retire!

Anon: Bringing up two children and having four beautiful grandchildren. To live long enough to be a great grandma!

Leonie: Conquering a fear of dogs and I'd like to learn to play the drums.

Sam: I'm proud of getting a promotion, and learning to love peas. I'd like to stop smoking.

Camilla: Directing my first play in February 2014 which was translated from German by my close friend and learning to drive.

Elissa: Retraining in a new career to become a family mediator. I'd like to learn Italian.

Lakhvinder: I have completed my business admin apprenticeship and passed my driving test. I would like to learn how to decorate cakes.

Kate: Becoming a mother and I'd like to learn to dance (Strictly here I come . . .)

Emma: Getting married and I'd like to learn reflexology one day.

I appointed Winston’s as conveyancers for both the sale of my existing home, and purchase of my next one. Sidraa and Tom were fantastic, working with pace and always responsive by email and/or when I called. It was far more seamless than I anticipated and I was incredibly impressed with their efficiency and communication. Thank you!

I found Winston Solicitors through, of all places, a post on Reddit from property flippers. They had great reviews on it and being a trusted person, did my due dilligence and checked Google too. I wasn't disappointed. I had been dealing with Amanda, Tom and Sidraa throughout my sale and purchase. I felt like I had the best team all the way through. Nothing got passed them and they were always prompt, helpful and friendly from start to finish. Sidraa certainly had her work cut out and she made me feel like they had my back and my interests at heart. Please don't be put off by using solicitors miles away. Most of this can be done online nowadays. It's all so easy to do. I don't want to move anytime soon but, if I have to, I will be using Winston Solicitors again and preferably the same team! Thank you all.
