Company Name and Info
Firefly Properties Limited
Personal information / relevant experience:
I joined PWBA in the infancy (2008) and have worked with the committee members to bring the PWBA to strength it is today. This has taken a great deal of hard work from the committee members who strive to achieve results for the local businesses and the community.
Firefly Properties (estate agents) is my own company which I launched in 2008 having worked in estate agency locally since 1985. I can honestly say that becoming a member of the PWBA was one of the best things I did when I launched my company, all the members have been so supportive and I have learnt a great deal from the local business sector.
PWBA has been fully supportive of the social events put together lead by the team lead by Linda Read which also included a First Aid Course and several theatre trips and curry nights we are always welcome to new ideas for socialising or to introduce a guest speaker.
