Autonomy fosters innovation and allows employees to find unique solutions to challenges.   At La Fosse, we believe our greatest asset is our people. That’s why we actively encourage and value the ideas and opinions of every employee.   Adam Bowman's innovative ideas have helped him to catapult himself into being one of our top billers, as well as being a role model to others in the business by sharing his journey to Head of Practice with our Who Wants to Bill a Million series.    To find out more about working at La Fosse, visit https://buff.ly/3DW4t02.

We’re delighted to announce La Fosse’s latest fundraising event with our charity partner St Andrew's Club The Christmas Big Give Challenge. From 3-10 December, all donations made via the Big Give website will be automatically doubled, delivering twice the impact to the children and families this fantastic charity works with. We’re pledging our financial support to help the club raise £16,000 - for every £10 donated via the website, they will receive £20 at no extra cost to donors.    St Andrew’s Youth Club provides after-school care including sports, games, creative arts, skills classes, and wellbeing workshops. At St Andrew’s, children and young people are encouraged to become healthier, happy, and more confident with a sense of community and belonging.   If you would like to donate to this valuable cause, please visit https://buff.ly/3UXfpDw between 3-10 December - any support you can provide will make a huge difference to the young people at St Andrew’s.
