Setfords

The Setfords Showcase has just wrapped up at Art’otel Battersea!    Our consultants have heard from some of our leaders on all things Setfords, reflecting on 2024 and learning more about what’s to come in 2025.     From business development and marketing to tech developments and compliance, we have lots of exciting insights to share.     Of course, we’ve also been enjoying a delicious afternoon tea ahead of the annual Christmas Party this evening, which is sure to be the highlight of this year’s Setfords social calendar!

As 2024 draws to a close, we’re reflecting on an incredible year of growth, achievement, and impact. Together, we’ve welcomed new faces, supported meaningful causes, and helped thousands of clients. Here’s to building on this success in 2025.

Behind the scenes at Setfords HQ, we've been hard at work creating new content! Over the past few weeks, our Marketing and Communications team have been collaborating with our consultants to create bespoke videos, highlighting their unique expertise and supporting them in promoting their services.   In addition, some of our consultants sat down and shared their experience of working at Setfords—check out snippets from Sonal Rabheru and David Miers on our page, with more to come!   By fostering close collaboration between our in-house teams and consultants, we ensure they have the support, tools, and resources to grow their practices and succeed.

🎄 One week to go until the Setfords Christmas Party 2024! 🎄   With just one week remaining until our Christmas party, we are taking a moment to reflect on last year’s event. With unforgettable moments including fire breathing and snakes, it was definitely a night to remember.   This annual event is a key highlight of our social calendar, providing an excellent opportunity for our consultants to connect with each other, meet our team, and celebrate everything we have achieved together throughout the year.   This year’s party, taking place at the iconic Battersea Power Station, promises to be bigger and better than ever. We are excited to share more next week and are looking forward to welcoming both familiar faces and new to what is sure to be a memorable event.

It's Christmas Jumper Day at Setfords! ✨🎄   Today, we're spreading cheer with our most festive outfits and raising funds for a cause close to our hearts. We're thrilled to share that we've already smashed our target for Save the Children, a charity dedicated to supporting children around the world.   If you'd like to join us in making a difference, donate here: https://lnkd.in/ga_2bAhS

Did you know your business could be affected by changes to the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954? On 9 December 2024 I attended the Law Commission consultation on potential changes to this crucial piece of legislation that could impact 5 million businesses in England and Wales. The Law Commission is looking at three options: * Getting rid of security of tenure altogether (no tenants protected) * Changing the current ‘contracting out’ system, which might include changing it to a ‘contracting in’ system * Making security of tenure mandatory (all tenants protected) Your voice matters, and the Commission is seeking input from businesses and individuals to inform its decision-making. Don’t miss this opportunity to shape the future of commercial property law! The consultation period ends on 19th February 2025.
