Suzanna Mavity of Acaboom is organising one of the biggest events of recent years for the #PropertyIndustry.
Suzanna quotes “Over 100 people have already signed up to this year’s Do It For Dom event – and more will be welcome. ‘Do It For Dom’ raises money for research into Huntingdon’s Disease – the cruel illness diagnosed in popular estate agent Dominic Subbiani two years ago. The disease is progressive and fatal, with no cure, and is passed along the generations. The Huntingdon’s Disease Association is immensely grateful for every penny raised. The likeable Dom runs an agency called FBM in Haverfordwest, which is part of Fine & Country, the Guild, the Relocation Agent Network, plus NAEA and ARLA. He has many friends throughout the industry. Last year, he took part – along with 48 others – in a tough, rain-soaked climb up Snowdon, which raised over £70,000.
This year Dom is hoping to take part again in the new Do It For Dom event. This is a two-day canoeing marathon along the beautiful River Wye, complete with an evening mini-festival in Ross-on-Wye, where the likes of Simon Whale will be letting their hair down after (we’d guess) several near capsizes. There will be a barbecue, music, stand-up comedy, a charity auction and games to have fun and help raise more funds. The event is on September 4 and 5, and is shaping up to be one of the largest industry events of its kind yet held”

The Agents Giving Grant
To apply for a grant please complete the application form and the team will be in touch.
Information about the grant fund:
The grant is for agents and suppliers to the industry to help with their event set up costs. Grants of up to £250 per office per year can be provided and you will need to supply a write up of your event along with an image to help Agents Giving promote your event oral social media platforms and website. Applicants will be given the Agents Giving logo to use in their marketing and PR. It is so simple to apply. Terms and conditions apply.
There are many ways to get involved with Agents Giving from organising your own fundraising event to coming to one of ours.
You can organise an event and raise money for Agents Giving, just as many of our supporters do, from cycle rides, to canoeing coast to coast to a Soapbox Challenge event. Come to one of our events, and you’ll have a great time with industry colleagues and at the same time raise money for many amazing charities and wonderful causes across the UK.
In 2018, together with all our supporters, we donated to over 80 charities. In 2019 we want to beat that, so get in touch and add your charity to the list. All agents that work with us can display our logo on their website and marketing collateral. We will also send you window stickers for you to display to show your community that you are part of the Agents Giving network.
