Stand Agency away day 2017
On Thursday 25th of May Stand Agency staff were whisked off to Suffolk’s incredible Wilderness Reserve for its annual away day.
Set in the Walled Garden of the estate, it was great to get a recap of Stand Agency’s successes this past year and hear the business plan for the years to come.
Luckily for us Mother Nature put on her summer best and the sun shone all weekend. From alfresco dinners, bike rides and wine tastings to bonfires and sunny swims – here are some of our favourite snaps from Stand’s Big Weekend:
