With their walking boots ready, members of the AT&A team will be taking on the 47th Orwell Challenge this Sunday. They will walk the 13 mile Levington Route to raise funds for the Motor Neurone Disease Association, Ormiston Families and Combat2Coffee. Good luck to Andrew Thompson, Marie Selby, Jonjo McCabe, Thomas Scovell, Lee Ellis Cert CII, Lily Aldridge and Rachel Brooke - we're sure you'll all be great. We'd like to thank everyone who has taken the time to donate. If you'd like to help us reach our sponsorship target, there's still time: Motor Neurone Disease Association - https://lnkd.in/ec75GPjb Combat2Coffee- https://lnkd.in/ezZFk-rm Ormiston Families - https://lnkd.in/eKQMP9jW

Having announced our support of The Orwell Challenge last week , it’s time to ask you to dig deep and sponsor our team. Inspired by the amazing people who have generated incredible funding for finding a cure for MND, & to mark the 15th anniversary of my dad succumbing to the dreadful disease , we’re fund raising for the MNDA . https://lnkd.in/epf_s7sY But why stop there ?! To support our friends doing great things at Ormiston Families and Combat2coffee, we’re fundraising for them too. https://lnkd.in/e3KvtXPj https://lnkd.in/ewYXizmm Thank you for your support

The North Lincolnshire village I grew up in was close by the Luftwaffe’s flight paths and one of my Dad’s earliest memories was their pilots dropping their un-used bombs on (especially) Hull to lighten their planes weight to get back to Germany. He never forgot and brought me up to understand the great sacrifices made by so many, educating me via trips to war memorials, museums, dams etc. Dad sadly passed away before we could visit Normandy and so for the 80th commemorative year of the D Day landings , I visited Sword Beach last month and what a humbling experience it was. I’m no great selfie taker but I managed a half decent picture at the statue of Piper Bill who, while battle raged, played rousing Scottish music for the troops as they caught the Germans by surprise . What heroes , we must never forget them.

Having continued our oldest charitable connection with The Suffolk Show, 2024 sees us venture into new support of local charities, and we're excited to announce we are one of the sponsors for the Ipswich East Rotary Club Orwell Challenge. Due to take place on Sunday 23 June, we will be the start and finish sponsors for this fantastic challenge, now in its 47th year. And, it doesn't stop there. Members of the AT&A team will be putting on their walking boots and taking part in the Orwell Challenge, too. Currently in training for the 13 mile Levington walking route is Marie Selby, Thomas Scovell, Jonjo McCabe, Lee Ellis Cert CII, Rachel Brooke and, of course, Andrew Thompson. We’ll be sharing details of how you can sponsor us and our team's training progress over the coming weeks. But, for now, head across to our website and find out more about this fantastic challenge https://lnkd.in/erJVJV_c

The Suffolk Show will be in full swing in just three weeks, and we can't wait. We're delighted to be this year's ticket wallet sponsor, and whilst we may be a little biased, we think they look great! The show celebrates the best of Suffolk and will take place on Wednesday 29 May, and Thursday 30 May. AT&A team members will be there throughout the two days - you'll find us in the sponsors' tent, so why not come along and see us if you're attending? #SuffolkShow #farming #agriculture #insurance #insurancebroker #Commercial

Happy International Women's Day Today, on International Women's Day, the entire AT&A team would like to help spread awareness of this important day and its strong theme for 2024, 'Inspire Inclusion'. We'd like to take the opportunity to recognise and celebrate the remarkable contributions of the women in our team and the wider business community. To further assist in promoting this day, we encourage you to learn more about its significance and this year's theme, 'Inspire Inclusion'. This theme emphasises the need for a gender-equal world where bias, stereotypes, and discrimination are eradicated. https://lnkd.in/dGX7T8X #IWD2024 #inspireinclusion

We're excited to share with you that Thomas Scovell, AT&A's Assistant Account Handler, has passed his Apprenticeship and Cert CII qualification. Congratulations Tom, from all the AT&A team - what a great achievement!

On a cold, murky morning in Suffolk, we’re warmed and brightened to welcome Jonjo McCabe today as he starts his insurance career as an Assistant Account Handler for AT&A, Andrew Thompson & Associates.   We are delighted Jonjo is the latest bright young professional to trust his first role with us, and we’re excited to see him follow in the footsteps of Thomas Scovell, Tomais Gaughan, Sean Collins, Kathryn Berry and Becca Garrard. We bet he will be every bit as successful as those super youngsters and he will be well supported by Marie Selby and our wonderful team as he learns his trade.   Happy New Year! #meettheteam #newteammember #insurancebroker
