We were delighted to welcome so many of our members to this year’s Summer Drinks Reception, held at The Listing, a contemporary venue just off Cannon Street on Tuesday 10th June.

The evening offered a relaxed and sociable setting for members to catch up over champagne, cocktails, and a delicious selection of canapés and bowl food. It was great to see such a broad mix of attendees – from long-standing supporters to newer members, including many from our FutureGen network.

We’re extremely grateful to S&W for their generous support in sponsoring the evening. Jason Dunlop, Partner, Real Estate Tax at S&W, kindly said a few words on the night, highlighting their involvement with AREF and ongoing commitment to the sector.

S&W (formerly Evelyn Partners) is a leading professional services firm, offering a full range of accounting, tax, and advisory services. Their real estate team supports clients across funds, investment structures and property businesses. You can find out more about their work in the real estate sector here or get in touch with their team.

Thank you again to everyone who joined us – we hope you enjoyed the evening!
