This year, law firm Blandy & Blandy is raising funds for Babies in Buscot Support (BIBS) and the Royal Berks Charity.

Teams came from across the Reading area and included Barclays, Barton Willmore Now Stantec, BDO, Beaufort Financial, Crowe, Handelsbanken, Haslams Chartered Surveyors, Hicks Baker, James Cowper Kreston, Kempton Carr Croft, KRE Corporate Recovery, Lichfields, NatWest, Nexus Planning, Quantuma, RSM, Savills, Vail Williams and Vale & West.

The winners were national accountancy and business advisory firm, BDO, who received bottles of English sparkling wine from Stanlake Park alongside their trophies.

Blandy & Blandy’s chairman and partner Nick Burrows said: “We were very pleased to be able to get together with so many of our professional colleagues from the Thames Valley business community for a really enjoyable evening.
