Megan runs the Marathon for London’s Air Ambulance Megan Greene from our Audit, Accounts & Outsourcing team is running in the TCS London Marathon on 23 April in support of our charity partner, London's Air Ambulance Charity . Megan said: “I have always wanted to run the London Marathon and have been inspired to use this opportunity to support this amazing charity thanks to BR’s partnership with LAA.” To celebrate running the marathon, Megan was invited to the London’s Air Ambulance helipad at the Royal London Hospital to learn more about their incredible work.

Pre-MIPIM Woman in Property event Last night it was our pleasure to support the Women in Property ‘How to Survive MIPIM’ event, which was held at our Covent Garden office and hosted by Heather Powell, Partner and Head of Property & Construction. MIPIM2023 is just a few weeks away and it can be a daunting experience for first timers. However, the event made sure that everyone felt right at home, as women from across the property industry gathered to share their experiences and top tips, while networking and making connections. The event also provided a welcome opportunity to reconnect with friends and colleagues we haven’t seen for a while over drinks and buffet. We would like to thank all those who attended the event. Here's to a successful #MIPIM2023 and making the most of the rewarding trip ahead.

The awards. which have been running for over a decade, have become known as ‘the private client Oscars’.
