It's with mixed emotions that we announce Chloe Stanley's upcoming six-month travel adventure. Chloe joined us just under two years ago and has been an integral part of the development of our Personal Injury and Insurance Division. Her infectious enthusiasm, humour, and vibrant personality have truly shone throughout her time with us. While we are all gutted to see her go, we know this journey is a well-deserved break and an exciting opportunity for her. Chloe's travels will start in January in the Philippines, then it's onto Bali, and finally, she'll be spending six months in Australia. To celebrate Chloe's time with us, we hosted a farewell party with Australia as the theme. The kangaroos, koalas, and sloths made it a memorable send-off! Chloe, your contributions have been invaluable, and your presence will be greatly missed. We wish you all the best on your travels and look forward to your return with amazing stories and experiences to share. Safe travels and see you soon! ✈️🌍
