Avocado Property & Soteria Planning Host Macmillan Coffee Morning

Avocado Property & Soteria Planning hosted a Macmillan Coffee Morning, raising over £150 to support Macmillan Cancer Support. A day filled with coffee, cakes, and community spirit.

We recently had the pleasure of hosting a Macmillan Coffee Morning alongside Soteria Planning, and it was a fantastic day filled with warmth, community spirit, and, of course, plenty of delicious cakes and coffee!

The event was focused on supporting a great cause. We set up a comfortable space at our office, where family, clients, and local residents dropped by to have a coffee, enjoy some treats, and contribute. It was a relaxed and friendly atmosphere with plenty of conversations.

Macmillan Cancer Support does incredible work, offering practical, emotional, and financial support to people living with cancer. Knowing that 98% of their funding comes from voluntary donations made it feel even more special to contribute. Together, we raised over £150, which will go directly towards helping Macmillan continue their essential services.

It was a great success, and we're truly grateful to everyone who popped by, donated, and made the morning so enjoyable. Being part of a community that cares is what makes events like this so brilliant, and we're already looking forward to doing it all again next year!

If you couldn't make it but still want to show your support, you can still donate. Every penny helps Macmillan make a real difference in people's lives.

As we move into early summer 2025, Stevenage's property market paints a bleak picture—especially for first-time buyers. Headlines scream that getting a foot on the ladder is harder than ever, and for many, that feels painfully true.

At first glance, that number stands out. More homes. More choice. But that's only half the story. Although the number of properties for sale locally has increased since 2022, the number of homes selling has also increased.

How do you beat those odds? When most people decide to put their Stevenage home on the market, they assume one thing. That it will sell.

Over the past five years, Crowthorne's private rental market has experienced a significant growth in rents. The average monthly rent has increased from £1,275 in 2020 to £1,711 in 2025, representing a 34% rise.
