Time for tea with Jacksons Law Firm

The Covid-19 outbreak may have caused us to cancel our Afternoon Tea, but the virus hasn’t stopped our Corporate Partner Jacksons Law Firm.

News and PR

The firm will be hosting a fun-filled virtual Afternoon Tea this July to raise funds and awareness for our foundation.

From 3.30pm – 5pm on Friday, July 31, guests can enjoy a delicious afternoon tea with their table in a private zoom room, before joining other attendees for a game of bingo and raffle.

Two speakers will join in the Zoom entertainment – Fiona Erskine, engineer and writer, and David Beattie of Rounton Coffee Roasters.

So, pour your tea, grab a cake (or two, we won’t judge) and join in for some Friday fun in aid of our foundation.

Tickets cost £20 each which includes afternoon tea, 2 bingo cards and 2 raffle tickets. There will be a limit of 100 tickets available, so grab yours while you can!

The host of each table will be asked to deliver afternoon tea to their guests. Book tickets here, or contact Karen Robinson on krobinson@jacksons-law.com or 01642 356509 for more information. Full details of the event will be sent upon booking.

"“This has been so educational, not only for the students but also the teachers; I had no idea of what really went on down here. This is great knowledge that I can take back with me and share with the other colleagues and students.”"

Teacher, Middlesbrough

""It was very informative and was definitely worth every minute. The speakers and staff were very kind and helped us all build a better understanding of the world of engineering. This was an insight I doubt I could have gotten anywhere else.""

"“I am grateful for the help and life changing experience High Tide have gave me and believe that I wouldn’t have got this chance anywhere else. I believe that without high tide I would have never received or had an opportunity to gain valuable experience and knowledge”"
