2012 has been a great year for Sewell & Gardner and the fantastic results have been totally down to our wonderful staff and all of their hard work and dedication.
In order to say a big ‘thank you’ the company directors, Alex Sewell, Jane Gardner, Jan Sewell & Gary Sewell decided to treat 6 members of the team to a memorable night at the prestigious Negotiator Award Ceremony held at the Hilton in Park Lane, London. This black tie event is a great opportunity to put on the glitz and glamour, and a limousine was hired to take the team from Rickmansworth up to London and back again at 1am.
So how do you pick 6 staff from 25, all of whom have contibuted to our success? Well the fairest way was to ask everyone who wanted the chance of a ticket to such a great evening, to write 250 words about why they should be chosen, and all of the directors independently voted for their winning 6. And the 6 with the most votes won the tickets!
So here are the winning team members:
Reagan Bradley; Kirsty Drabik; Rochelle Latham; Emily Outrim; Jackie Scott & Ben Smith.

So the limousine headed up to London with the winners and Directors on board, plus a few bottles of bubbles! At the Hilton Hotel a champagne reception awaited followed by a sumptuous 3 course meal before Jon Culshaw took to the stage to entertain everyone with his impersonations!

It was also really great to see our company shortlisted for 3 Award Categories this year: Independent Letting Agency; Independent Estate Agency (1-2 branches) & Community Champion of the Year. Although these are industry awards and not voted for by our customers, as for the ESTAS Awards (where we won Gold Lettings & Silver Sales this year) it did not detract from the excitement of seeing our name up on the big screen!

So no more awards for us this time around, but a great evening had by all, lots of cheering, lots of laughs and more incentive for the Sewell & Gardner team to make even more of an impact next year! So watch out, this team of estate agents are going to be the very best they can possibly be, wonderful news for our customers!
