Supporting Tetbury’s Woolsack Tradition

Supporting Tetbury’s Woolsack Tradition

We were proud to be part of this year’s Tetbury Woolsack Race — one of the UK’s most unique and entertaining community events. As sponsors (and gazebo providers!), we loved supporting the action on Gumstool Hill and soaking up the fantastic atmosphere.

We were thrilled to sponsor this year’s Tetbury Woolsack Race, a quirky and much-loved tradition that took place over the late May Bank Holiday.

The event, which sees competitors running up and down the famously steep Gumstool Hill carrying heavy sacks of wool, has been a highlight of Tetbury life for decades — and 2025 was no exception.

This year’s race drew huge crowds, plenty of laughter, and some seriously impressive feats of strength and endurance. Teams and solo runners from all over came to take part, raising money for local charities and celebrating the town’s wool trading heritage.

As proud sponsors, we were delighted to play a small part in the day’s success. We also lent our gazebo, which provided much-needed shade and shelter throughout the afternoon — and became a popular hub for visitors looking to catch their breath or escape the sun.

A big thank you to the organisers, volunteers, and all the brave racers who made it such a memorable day. We’re already looking forward to next year!

Community spirit at its best! We were proud to play a small part in this year’s Ashton Keynes Festival – a fantastic local event filled with sunshine, smiles, and a real sense of togetherness.

Selling your home is a big decision and it deserves more than a standard, one-size-fits-all approach. We believe in doing things differently. Not just by putting in the work, but by genuinely caring about your home, your journey, and what comes next.

Buying a new home comes with benefits that go far beyond that fresh paint smell. From modern design and energy efficiency to buyer incentives and peace of mind with long-term warranties, new builds are designed to make your move easier and your living experience smoother.

When it comes to mortgages and protection, there’s no such thing as one-size-fits-all. That’s why we search the whole market — from high street names to specialist lenders — to find a solution tailored to you. The result? A process that’s clear, quick, and built around your goals.
