Brighton’s Grand Hotel was once again the venue for the annual Brighton and Hove Estate Agents Association Dinner. Traditionally at the dinner the new President takes up his role and this year James Epps of Oakley estate agent, who operate both residential and commercial services, did in James Bond style complete with gun and casino.
The event was well attended and hugely successful. The usual Heads and Tails competition always raises a large sum for charity and this year’s prize of a double page feature here in Latest Homes was well received by Winkworth who also won an evening for four at Brighton’s historic Theatre Royal in the Royal Box complete with champagne, kindly donated by the Ambassador Theatre Group.
The dinner is also the time that we at Latest Homes present the Lifetime Achievement Award. The winner is selected by the BHEAA Council, and here at Latest Homes we are always proud to sponsor the title and present the beautiful bespoke ceramic award. This year it was awarded to Hugh Tucknott of Parsons Son and Basley. Hugh started his career in estate agency back in 1972 when he worked for Inman Philpott and Austin. He joined PSB in 1977 and has been there since, an impressive 36 years. Himself a former BHEAA president, he is a much respected and much loved figure on the local property scene bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience to the industry.
