A huge thank you to the Cambridgeshire Law Society for hosting another fantastic Summer Party, celebrating an incredible 155 years of supporting the legal profession in Cambridgeshire.
As proud sponsors of the event, it was a pleasure to spend the evening catching up with colleagues from across the profession, enjoying the live music and making the most of the glorious summer weather. We’re all just a little bit jealous that our own Samantha Marsh was the lucky winner of the raffle hamper!
Thank you to Joanna Cotgrove and Penelope Harrington for presiding over the evening and to everyone at the Cambridgeshire Law Society for such a memorable evening – we look forward to the next one!
