International Women’s Day – What does that mean to you? To recognise IWD, we have been thinking about who our champion is. How have they influenced and/or inspired us. Who is yours? Is there someone in your business, industry, family, network? Honour them by thanking them for what they do and how they have affected you. There are plenty of amazing women in history who have played major roles in science, civil rights, democracy, engineering, literature, women’s rights … the list goes on. Perhaps one of these women had an impact on you. A big shout out to the four ladies of Desire Wealth Management, couldn’t do it without you. And don’t forget its Mother’s Day on Sunday. #IWD2024 #InspireInclusion

Well done to our Business Development Manager, Gaynor Purton who, for the third year running, organised a Charity Christmas Community Sing-a-long which took place on Christmas Eve Eve , raising nearly £1400 for her local Food Bank. She said ‘It is such an amazing event to organise and it’s so rewarding to see (and hear) people of all ages join in with the singing. The community support was incredible, doubling last years turn out, and we can’t thank them enough for their generosity’. It’s a real family affair with both her children, husband and father-in-law playing or singing about 15 Christmas Classics including ‘Rockin’ around the Christmas Tree’ which is where the event takes its name from. Roll on next year! #supportlocal #rockinaroundthexmastree

Well that's a wrap, well, more a ‘tash’. After 30 days, our MD will finally say good bye to his carefully cultivated moustache. It has observed many internal meetings, external workshops, golf matches at the weekends and client meetings throughout November. Most recently, it has grown to become quite the drinking and eating partner (taking more than its fair share of what was supposed to be consumed). There have been many who thought it had become a permanent member of the team, but alas, for the sake of future tan lines and a desire to be taken seriously once again by staff, it will see its final sunset today. On a serious note, if anyone thought about their own health, or that of their son, father or husband, it’s all been worth it. #movember2023 #menshealthawareness
