This Summer we enjoyed some fun events organised by our SAT team
5 Aug 2024
This Summer we enjoyed a couple of great evenings organised by our SAT team, one in Guildford and the other in London.
Taking advantage of the English summer we organised a family and friends sports extravaganza in Regents Park, central London on Sunday 18th (well timed as the Olympics and Paralympics were being held Paris). We played traditional games including the sack race, the egg and spoon race and tug of war, which everyone could take part in.
Everyone within Alliotts is welcome to any event we hold, they are not exclusive to either office, this means that we enjoy socialising with colleagues across the firm and no one is a stranger.

Bowling in Guildford
We went bowling in Guildford, which brought out the competitive spirit in many of our colleagues, who then had the opportunity to share their fascinating stories of winning bowling strategies over dinner afterwards.

A couple of week later over 50 of us gathered at Fairgame in London to pit our wits against one another at traditional funfair games, with a twist. After we’d finished showing off our exceptional fairground talents, we continued the evening nearby.
The resignation on Monday 22 June of Sir Keir Starmer, timed for shortly before the (delayed) arrival at Euston of former mayor of Manchester, now MP for Makerfield Andy Burnham, could mark a major change in UK fiscal and economic policy.
