Sills & Betteridge were proud to sponsor the tenth anniversary of the Gainsborough Riverside Festival on Saturday 11th June 2011. Since the firm opened our Gainsborough office back in October 2010 we have taken an active role in the community in and around the town.
[[posterous-content:pid___0]]The Sills stand was a hub of activity. The fantastic double-act by Phil, Debbie Cocker-Brown's husband, and Tony Woods ensured that everyone was entertained and there were many comments to the effect that it was nice to see solicitors not wearing suits and handing out sweets!

The day was fine but windy; several of our balloons escaped and came close to damaging innocent bystanders. Andrew Durkan was on hand just in case. Debbie and Shan were invited as sponsors to attend a VIP reception at the Old Hall where they met the Mayor and other dignitaries and even managed to get involved in the parades by joining the Scouts band.

The Sills & Betteridge prize draw lured lots of people trying to win a free Will, bottle of fizz or chocolates. The winners will be announced over the coming days, once they have all been contacted.
The show generated lots of enquiries for the Firm’s services and we believe contributed to an enjoyable and successful day promoting Gainsborough and all that it has to offer as well as promoting the Firm and its commitment to the town.
