The women from GNA had an exceptional experience at the second annual Sheffield Construction and Property Summer Soiree, a prestigious black-tie event that has become a highlight of the local industry’s social calendar. This event was collaboratively hosted by three prominent organizations—Women in Property, Young Entrepreneurs in Property (YEP), and RICS Matrics—demonstrating a commitment to inclusivity and professional development within the construction and property sectors. Key sponsors, including Turner & Townsend and Castle Owen Construction & Property Ltd, lent their support to ensure the evening was a resounding success.
The soiree featured a delicious three-course meal, setting the tone for an evening of celebration, networking, and philanthropy. Attendees were able to engage with other like-minded professionals, forging connections across different disciplines within the property and construction industries. The event also provided a unique platform for guests to learn about emerging trends and share their experiences in a relaxed, yet sophisticated atmosphere.
A standout feature of the evening was the charity raffle, which added a sense of purpose to the celebrations by supporting the incredible work of Roundabout Ltd. This Sheffield-based charity is dedicated to providing shelter and essential support to vulnerable young people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. Roundabout’s mission is not only to offer immediate housing solutions, but also to empower young people with the life skills and resources necessary to build sustainable futures. By raising awareness and funds for this vital cause, the event underscored the industry’s commitment to giving back to the community.
Ultimately, the Sheffield Construction and Property Summer Soiree was much more than a social event; it served as an inspiring showcase of the collaborative spirit within the construction and property sectors, fostering professional growth, while championing important social causes like youth homelessness.
