The Great Nash Bake Off

20 October 2014

 

 

Following the successs of the Great Nash Bake Off 2013, we decided to do it again.  Any excuse to eat cake…………….

 

The day of the Bake Off was very exciting.  The Baker all took up their Bakes to the conference room, where they were all laid out for us in preparation for Bernadette from Children’s Hospice South West coming to act as judge.

 

The Bakers were (in alphabetical order):

  • Helen Bull (Partner Solicitor – Family/Children)
  • Hilary Cragg (Partner Solicitor – Vulnerable Client)
  • Julia Ludlow – (Legal Executive – Residential Conveyancing)
  • Jan Thomas (Costings)
  • Nicola Tiltman (Secretary)
  • Sue Wakeham (Receptionist)

 

We had bakers on the day bring something, who had not originally confirmed that they were entering into the competition and we are grateful for the contributions.
