Wednesday 4 March: Leeds Mencap Apprentice - Team Winston launch day

When Leeds Mencap approached us to take part in their Apprentice Challenge, it was an opportunity to be grabbed. And what better way to start the fundraising ball rolling than with a team photo - in a ball pool!

Team Winston are looking to turn their initial £50 loan into a handsome profit to hand over to Leeds Mencap. We can't reveal all our plans just yet, incase the other Apprentice Challenge teams taking part pick up any ideas. Watch this space . . .

We are launching in our usual style with a Bake-Off, so more photos and updates to follow shortly.

Thursday 5 March: Spring-themed Bake Off

We're starting the fundraising in our usual fashion, with a Spring-Themed Baked-Off! Thanks to all the staff here at Winston Solicitors who baked, and of course to all the staff who have paid to taste and judge. Well done to Lynn Wallis and Vicki Price for your winning entries.

Quiz Mania

Our next event will be Quiz Mania on Thursday 23 April starting at 6.30pm. Only £20 per team (max 6 people per team). Entry details herehttps://www.winstonsolicitors.co.uk/blog/5th-annual-quiz-aid-leeds-mencap

Thanks to everyone who came to our Quiz night. 21 teams, that's over 110 people came to take part in our quiz. Paul Grindley played the role of quiz master perfectly. Cath Lee filled us all in on Leeds Mencap and explained where the fundraising will go. Between the raffle and the chance to swop a question, plenty of money was raised for the Apprentice Challenge.

Congratulations to the winning team The Inbetweeners AKA Ashcourt Rowan. Just one point ahead meant they took home the medals!

 

Client feedback

I really appreciated my solicitor, Keertan. They were very patient, helpful and compassionate despite my own issues with sending ID off. I ended up sorting out my ID, and everything worked out. Thank you!!

Olivia and the team at Winston Solicitors were really helpful and supportive every step of the way to buying my first home. I found their online portal super helpful to see what still needed to be done and understand each step of the process.
Samantha
Winston solicitors supported me excellently through my employment law case.

The conveyancing team, led by Samantha Robertson-Strong have been excellent in guiding us through both the sale and purchase of our houses. Always communicative and happy to explain aspects of the process. Highly recommend.

Amanda and the entire Winston Solicitors team were exceptional from start-to-finish. As our 'point person' on my father's personal injury case (and not being in any way legally minded ourselves), Amanda guided us effortlessly through the requirements, evidence & documentation needed along the way, and timelines with different possible outcomes (never overstated, just refresgingly honest). My dad (at the time 88 but by settlement approaching 90) was kept in the loop at all times, able to make decisions for himself due to the professionalism and care of Amanda.Would highly recommend Amanda and the Winston team - really impressed.

Olivia Cooke and her team provided an excellent service throughout our property sale. The team were efficient, clear, and kept us well informed at every stage. The conveyancing process was handled smoothly and professionally. Highly recommended Winston Solicitors. We were particularly impressed with our conveyancing assistant, Amanda Lester, who kept us updated and made the process a great experience!
