Many congratulations to the fundraising champions named at last week’s Agents Giving Ball.

They were Bassets Estate Agents winning the category for best team of company fundraisers.

The firm raised a total of £25,000 for the Trussell Trust, the Salisbury Trust, Splash Wiltshire and Alabare.

Kathryn Hunter of Hawkmoth Estate Agents took the award in the best individual category for her support of a range of charities in Milton Keynes, including MIND, Cancer Research and the Oasis Project.

She has also set up a charity to campaign against teenage self-harming.

Thomas Morris Estate Agents were triumphant in the best innovative and creative fundraising category, and X1 Lettings took home the award for special fundraising following their ongoing support of their chosen cancer charities.

Suppliers to the industry were also recognised and Ravensworth was successful in the best industry supplier fundraising category.

Phil Spencer, patron of Agents Giving, commented: “The Agents Giving ball was an opportunity for the industry to come together for a night of glamour, dancing and celebration of the fundraising efforts of the property industry over the last year.

“We were absolutely delighted to announce the Agents Giving Fundraising Champion Awards, and all the winners should be very proud of what they have achieved for their local charities.

“It was amazing to have the support of all our partners and supporters who made it such a wonderful celebration.

“Agents Giving has helped to raise an impressive £1m so far, and it’s all looking very exciting for the year ahead.”
