Seymours uses photographer for new website images in support of Parkinson’s UK


Seymours Solicitors recently moved into new, prestigious offices in Leamington and Coventry.
In order to reflect these upgraded facilities, they decided to overhaul their website at the same time.
So as part of this revamp, Gina Dixon (Director) asked a friend, Kevin Ward, to take some photos to capture the unique nature of the local area.
Kevin was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2010 and was inevitably shocked, as he had always been fit and active and still remains a keen competitor at 5 a side football, 7 years later.
Having been initially shaken he was then stirred into resisting the rigors of Parkinson’s and decided to go trekking in the Himalayas with his wife, Ruth. This adventure provided the inspiration for Kevin to put his longstanding interest in photography to good use and raise funds for the Parkinson’s UK charity.
Therefore, on his return from Nepal, Kevin produced a 2014 photographic calendar, which was sold to raise funds for the charity.  Kevin has produced subsequent calendars for charities and currently has a number of pictures on display at Walsgrave hospital in Coventry. He is also busy on a photographic project which seeks to positively represent the lives of people with learning difficulties and to emphasise their achievements.
Seymours are delighted with the photographs that Kevin has taken and which are proudly displayed on the new website. The Directors have made a donation of £150 to Parkinson’s UK, which is the UK’s No1 Parkinson’s support and research charity (their vision and ultimate ambition is to find a cure, and improve life for everyone affected by Parkinson’s). You can visit their website to find out more: https://www.parkinsons.org.uk/ and make a donation online here.

Client Blog: Bursaries and Incentives on Offer to Attract Trainee Teachers

Image
A recent article in the Guardian stated that “ Schools are in crisis. With plummeting teacher training applications and difficulties in recruiting enough staff to fill vacancies, tuition fees, unacceptable workloads and budget cuts have all been blamed for the current shortage”. However, there is light on the horizon! It is actually a great time to join the profession, with the Government and a range of innovative organisations finding ways to make teacher training much more appealing. As its most basic level, all teacher training courses include time spent training in at least two schools and lead to qualified teacher status (QTS). But there are also a variety of training routes available, to meet the needs and desires of prospective teachers, whatever their personal circumstances.
