Last week, we took an afternoon out of the office to raise money for @FrancisHouseCH Children's Hospice as part of the @HBLAssociates Annual Charity Football Tournament.
It was a fantastic afternoon, raising funds for a truly worthwhile cause and enjoying some great football along the way.
To top it all off, J B Langley brought home the trophy as this year's champions! 🏆⚽
A big thank you to everyone involved in organising the event and supporting such an incredible charity.

Great to see our Dads Support Group (Dads Hub Central) come together at Parrswood Entertainment Centre for a night of bowling, laughs, and good company. Everyone had a brilliant time - and of course, absolutely no one was being competitive... not even a bit 😉
