Adams Harrison have carried the Christmas spirit into the New Year by donating £1000 across national and local charities. The money was given in lieu of sending Christmas Cards to their clients in December, something that they have done for the past few years.
Jennifer Carpenter, Managing Partner said, “we are delighted to have donated money to both local and national causes. We make donations to local charities every year, however, this year with the Ebola Crisis we felt it only right that we also donated to the Children suffering in Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia.”

Two days later Shoshana Goldhill – the family department partner presented a cheque to Claire Durrant the Chair of Trustees and Christine Till Scheme Manager of Home Start Uttlesford for £350.00 at their offices at Uttlesford District Council. In addition to donating to these two great causes, Jennifer Carpenter at Adams Harrison handed over a cheque to Lynne Taylor volunteer for Save the Children for £300 towards the Ebola Crisis appeal at the Saffron Walden office this week.
A Christmas Cracker Of A Party
Christmas Parties are a great way to let your hair down and celebrate yet another busy year. At Adams Harrison this was most definitely the case. We changed our conventional sit down Christmas meal for an exciting and energy fueled dancing ceilidh. We all chose to dress up for this occasion in tartan.
