Thanks Essex Fire Service, the drinks are on us!

Thanks Essex Fire Service, the drinks are on us!

The blue light services who put themselves in danger for our good deserve special recognition, that is why during the extraordinary heatwave this week we hit the supermarket and bought Hawkwell Firefighters a drink or two on us!

We had a surplus in the Amos petty cash and wanted to do something positive so we spoke to Corrina O'Donnell Uik from United in Kind who told us about the brilliant work being delivered by the firefighters at Hawkwell Fire Station during the heatwave. They have been attending incidents right across the County. Can you imagine wearing full kit in the oppressive heat we have experienced, must have been challenging to say the least.

Anyway, we headed to the supermarket and spent the rest of the kitty on some well deserved drinks and snacks for the team at Hawkwell for when they finally get a break. Thanks Corrina for the idea and huge thanks to Essex Fire Service.

This year’s Remembrance displays have been extra special for all of us at Amos Estates. It marks ten years since we first began our poppy project, and what started as a small local tribute has grown into a proud community tradition. With displays across Hockley, Thundersley Village, Thundersley Common, and Hadleigh War Memorial.

Selling for the first time can feel overwhelming. Everyone has advice, most of it conflicting. Here are the key questions to ask every estate agent, plus the step-by-step process you’ll go through to launch your home the right way.

Thinking of selling soon? Setting the right asking price can make or break your move. Here’s why overvaluing your home, even with the best intentions, can actually reduce its true market value and slow your sale.

As November draws near, red poppies begin to bloom across lapels, symbolising remembrance, gratitude, and unity. Each year, the Royal British Legion’s Poppy Appeal brings communities together to honour those who have served and sacrificed in the Armed Forces. It’s a time to pause, reflect, and give back and thanks to the tireless RBL volunteers.
