The Quayside Big Bash

What better way to celebrate 10 years in business than with sunshine, smiles, and a fantastic day of fundraising for a cause close to our hearts?

Our Quayside Big Bash, held in support of The Pied Piper Appeal, turned out to be a truly unforgettable event. With the sun shining down, we were joined by friends, family, clients, professional connections, and local supporters, all gathered to celebrate a decade of Quayside and to raise vital funds for a charity that makes a real difference to children in Gloucestershire.

A Day Full of Fun and Games

The day had something for everyone, with a host of classic fete games and family-friendly activities that brought out plenty of laughter and light-hearted competition. From the ever-popular tombola and hook-a-duck to the crowd-pleasing wooden stocks (some brave volunteers got very soggy!) and the bouncy castle that kept the kids entertained all afternoon, it was a proper summer celebration.

Delicious food and drink came courtesy of our friends at Ruby’s and Deano’s Diner, and their incredible teams who kept everyone well-fed an watered throughout the day. The atmosphere was buzzing from start to finish, and it was heartwarming to see so many familiar faces, and new ones, coming together in the name of community and charity.

So far, we’ve raised over £4,000, and we’re still counting! Every penny raised goes toward our ambitious £10,000 fundraising target for The Pied Piper Appeal, and we’re incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved so far.

Huge thank you's are in order:

• To all the businesses who donated such generous prizes for our raffle and auction
• To Katy Price from The Pied Piper Appeal, who supported us on the day
• To everyone who came, played, donated, laughed, and helped make it such a special occasion.

And a massive thank you from Alex personally to our incredible Quayside team. You gave up your time, trusted me when I come up with the slightly mad ideas (as always!), and brought the same energy, passion, and community spirit that defines everything we do, both inside and outside of work. I couldn’t ask for a better group of people to share this milestone with.

Looking Ahead

Celebrating our 10-year anniversary this way felt like the perfect reflection of who we are: a team that values people, community, and purpose. We’re so grateful to everyone who has been part of our journey so far, and we’re excited to see where the next 10 years will take us, with plenty more good times and meaningful impact to come.
