It's the final b4b Friday roundup of 2021!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year. No, not Christmas. It’s b4b weekly roundup time! 

Technically this happened last week, but we had a fantastic time at our Christmas party. We enjoyed delicious food, a few too many glasses of Prosecco, and had a good ol’ fashioned boogie. Thanks for having us, Maison Sax! Here are some of our favourite snaps from the day.

Who wore it best?

The awards ceremony

After the meal, we gave out some awards for outstanding work over the past year. We honoured the rising stars, the top performers, and the projects we’ve worked on that truly showcase the best of what we can do as a business. 

On Wednesday, we attended the AFC Business Christmas lunch at AFCB. We were reunited with some of our friends from the BC Club (as well as the famous taxi, which is back up and running after a week off the road) and enjoyed a lovely meal.

We’ve been working on social media for a recent new client, The Property Franchise Group, and their portfolio of national brands. We also had a great meeting on Monday with our client - recruitment app, gigr - about the work we’re doing on their social strategy. We’re seeing some great results so far and we’re really excited to be working with them.  

Our Software and Web teams have been taking part in a book club, and met this week to discuss the book You’re Not Listening. They shared everything they’ve learnt so far about listening and being an active participant in meetings and throughout the workday. The book has given them some valuable insights so far!

We will shortly be announcing our Charity of the Year for 2022 and we couldn’t be more excited to be raising money for this worthwhile cause. It was lovely to pop down to the charity’s office this morning for a quick (and socially distanced) meeting to pick up some fundraising materials.

Watch this space for the announcement coming soon!

We’re living in strange times at the moment, but we’re not letting the return to working from home stop us from enjoying some festivities before we break up for Christmas. We will be having a company-wide Zoom quiz (remember those?!) during lunch on Wednesday to celebrate the end of what has been a successful year, despite the challenges we’ve all faced. 

This will be our last weekly roundup of 2021. We hope you enjoy these little glimpses into life at b4b and we look forward to catching up with you again in the new year. 

Wishing you a very happy Christmas. Stay safe and we’ll speak to you soon.
