September has flown by, and what a month it’s been! Whether it’s supporting our local community, welcoming new customers, celebrating team milestones or getting involved in events across the region, it’s been a month full of great moments.

BLGC Padel Tournament

On 18th September, we took two teams down to the BLGC Padel Tournament at The Padel Club, raising support for the incredible work BLGC does for young people and families.

A huge congratulations to Christian Bleakley and Gary Thornburn, who won the tournament and brought the trophy home after an outstanding performance on the court!

As for our second team, Jack Edge ACCA & Jack Barrow... let's just say they were there for the networking opportunities and moral support rather than the silverware 😅🎾

From meeting fellow businesses to enjoying some friendly competition, it was a fantastic day from start to finish.

A massive thank you to the amazing BLGC team for organising another brilliant event. We're always proud to get involved, support the charity and give something back.

Giacom's Imagine Nation Event

Some of the Firstcom team had the opportunity to attend Giacom's Imagine Nation event in London earlier this month.

Thank you to the Giacom team for having us - it was a brilliant day filled with insightful talks and roundtable discussions, followed by an incredible party in the evening.
