Winston Solicitors welcomed the opportunity to work with Cardinal Heenan High School, in Leeds 6, during a project involving imagination, creativity and business flair.

A ‘Dragon’s Den’ style forum was set up with the Year 10’s working on their projects in five teams of 16. Each team had two hours come up with a business idea with a prototype, work out costings and prepare their presentation. Spokespersons for each team presented their idea to a panel of judges who included Miles Mount from LEAP, Christine Marsden from Education Leeds and from Winston Solicitors Jonathan Winston and Francis O’Neill.

Having listened to all the business ideas the panel then chose the most worthy winner.

“I was looking for a team that presented an interesting plan, but I also wanted to see enthusiasm and belief in themselves.” said Jonathan Winston. “It was great fun and hopefully the teams were able to work on a project that motivated them and enabled them to be work as part of a team.”

Jonathan and Francis from Winston Solicitors then presented personal calculators to each member of the winning team.

Client feedback

Emily Spencer from Winston Solicitors handled the setup of our Will efficiently and professionally from start to finish. She explained everything clearly, answered all our questions, and made what could have been a daunting process feel straightforward and stress-free. My wife and I both felt well looked after and confident that everything was done properly. We would happily recommend Emily and Winston Solicitots to anyone needing this kind of service. Thank you, Emily!

I would recommend Winston’s to any first time buyers out there that need support on the conveyancing process. Samantha and the team were attentive, communicated clearly, regularly and their checks were thorough. The whole process was smooth and I was updated regularly. A huge thank you to Samantha for guiding me throughout the whole process!

We used Winston Solicitors to change our wills so that we limited the amount of money could be claimed by care homes should we need to use them for our care.Emily did an excellent job for us and we would definitely recommend Winston Solicitors.
