Sills Stand At The Record Breaking 2011 Heckington Show

Over the weekend of 30th / 31st August 2011 was the historic Heckington Show. Originating in 1863, this is one of Lincolnshire's foremost village shows, which attracts visitors from across the UK. Last weekend was no exception with a record breaking 30,000 people attending over the two days.

Since the merger with Godsons Solicitors in Sleaford, last October 2010, Sills and Betteridge have looked at every opportunity to raise our profile in the Sleaford area and could not pass up the invitation to have a stand at the show.

Sue Ross from Sleaford lives in Heckington and, with the help of her husband Jason, she set the stand up on Friday evening. We had been given an excellent spot by the main ring and would like to thank Jackie Wright, the Heckington Show Tradestand Secretary for looking after us so well.

On the Saturday Emma Lawler from Sills and Betteridge presented prizes in the show jumping competition. As always we had hired Robbie Mcmagic and on both days there were queues of children waiting for his balloon scupltures. It gave the staff on the stand the opportunity to chat to some of the visitors and hand out leaflets, frisbees and pens to passers by.

On speaking to Robbie on Sunday he totalled up that he had used over 500 ballons over the 2 days, which shows exactly how busy he had been. A big thanks from all at Sills for your hard work Robbie. Over the weekend we were also accepting donations for LIVES our chosen charity for 2011. 

It was a long hot weekend but so rewarding to meet so many people and receive so many enquires. We ended with 61 contact cards completed over the weekend and over 20 enquiries about our services which have been handed to the relevent departments. It was a fantastic event and drove home how important it is that we fully support these type of events as a firm and use them to engage with our client base.

A big thanks to every Sills and Betteridge staff member and partner who helped over the weekend including Richard Bussell, Rachel Bussell, Ed Sharpe, Sue Clayton, Beris Brickles, Sue Ross,Sacha Waxman, Chris Appleyard, Isabel Clarke, Emma Lawler, Carly Murphy, Katie Scott, Richard Mawer and all the collective husbands, wives and girlfriends who made up the remaining stand team. You all made it what it was - well done.
