Glasgow firm tackles 200-mile challenge to help homeless
A Glasgow property consultancy is taking on a 200-mile fundraising challenge in aid of a charity helping homeless people. Fisher German is celebrating its 25th anniversary with a 'Big 25' charity initiative, aiming to raise at least £25,000 for 25 chosen charities. They plan to achieve this by travelling between the firm's 25 UK office locations without using motorised transport. Any donations up to £25,000 from supporters will be match-funded by Fisher German, potentially raising £50,000 in total.

The Glasgow team opted to support Simon Community Scotland, a charity assisting homeless people in the city, including providing advice on getting a job or combating addiction. The charity was selected after associate partner Ralph Gurevitz's encounter with a homeless woman near their office. Mr Gurevitz said: 'I had left something at the office one day, so I went back that evening with my daughter and saw the woman in the doorway of a nearby building. 'It was a freezing evening, so we thought we should get her some hot food. We visited a McDonalds and got her a meal and a hot chocolate. She was very grateful to us for thinking of her. 'We asked her if she needed any further help or if she needed taking anywhere. She politely declined, so we left her be. "I saw her again a little while later and got her food for a second time and wondered if any organisations could help her. "My wife told me about Simon Community Scotland, who help homeless people in Glasgow and the rest of the country. "When the Big 25 challenge came along and we were thinking of charities to support, Simon Community Scotland just made sense to us. "The work they do for people who have fallen on hard times in Glasgow is amazing." Fisher German's Glasgow team began their journey after a bagpiper played a fanfare. Their route will take them through Falkirk, Kirkintilloch, Edinburgh, Dunbar, Berwick-upon-Tweed, and Bamburgh, before concluding in Newcastle on June 25. Marie McShane, relationships and partnerships manager at Simon Community Scotland, said: "Any funds raised will help us provide safe places, support, and hope to many people in our community who desperately need this. "Amidst the cost-of-living crisis and housing emergency, more people than ever before are at risk of homelessness.'

507-acre historic Conwy estate on market for £4.5million
The Garthewin Estate, located in the village of Llanfair Talhaiarn above the Elwy River Valley, is on the market with a guide price of £4.5million. The estate, which is on the market with Fisher German, is steeped in history and includes an 11-bedroom Grade II*-listed hall with an adjoining flat, as well as five secondary residential properties, a farmhouse, extensive outbuildings, stabling and a private theatre. The estate includes extensive outbuildings, stabling and a private 'theatre' (Image: Fisher German) It also includes a Grade II-listed chapel featuring a bell tower, altar and stained-glass windows. The charming 507-acre country estate sits in a tremendous setting (Image: Fisher German) The estate's extensive grounds feature formal gardens, agricultural land and forestry, providing potential for diverse usage or income-generating opportunities subject to planning. The ground floor includes a noteworthy drawing room (Image: Fisher German) The property also offers an immediate income from its cottages and farmstead, as well as its farmland and woodland. The Garthewin Estate was the family home of Robert Wynne and his successors who lived in the area for at least eleven centuries (Image: Fisher German) Michael Harris, Partner at Fisher German, said: 'This is an incredibly rare opportunity to purchase a stunning estate spanning more than 500 acres which enjoys good connections to the commercial centres of the North West. The outbuildings comprise a clock tower, shippon, stables, a theatre, cart shed and stores. (Image: Fisher German) 'The Grade II-listed hall is an important 18th century Welsh country house, retaining fine external character and good interior detailing, while the extensive grounds provide a wealth of potential income-generating opportunities such as an equestrian centre, country retreat or glamping, subject to planning.' The Garthewin Estate extends to approximately 205.39 hectares (507.53 acres) (Image: Fisher German) Further details about the property can be found by visiting: The Garthewin Estate was the family home of Robert Wynne and his successors who lived in the area for at least eleven centuries. The Wynne family's stewardship ended in 1996 when the current owner acquired the property as a principal residence. The first written records refer to the house in the 14th century. The Elizabethan house which replaced it was knocked down, as was the Jacobean house which came next. Garthewin was the ancestral home of the Wynne family for over a millennium. The current Georgian-style hall, designed in 1767 by Joseph Turner of Chester, was later enhanced by Clough Williams-Ellis, the visionary behind Portmeirion. A striking tower was added in 1870 to house the estate's grand ballroom, today the principal reception room.
