Spreading Joy: Sharp Consultancy’s Annual Easter Egg Drive

​At Sharp Consultancy, our annual Easter Egg Drive has once again brought together our team, clients, and community to support local charities and spread a little cheer. As a finance and accountancy recruitment business rooted in Yorkshire, we’re proud to use our network to give something back—and this year has been no exception.​Led by Tom Davage, Senior Consultant in our South Yorkshire office, our team has been out and about collecting Easter egg donations from our fantastic clients. The generosity shown has been incredible, especially given the ongoing challenges many continue to face. Thanks to everyone who contributed, we were able to deliver meaningful support to three wonderful charities in our region: Paces, a specialist centre supporting children with cerebral palsy and motor disorders; St Luke’s Hospice, which offers compassionate end-of-life care; and The Family Works, a trauma informed, family support project working alongside underprivileged families.​Tom, who organised this year’s initiative, shared: “When you hear the stories from the people working within these charities, it really opens your eyes to the challenges others face. If we can bring a smile to someone’s face—even through something as simple as an Easter egg—it makes it all worthwhile. Every bit of support counts.” Seeing familiar donators from past years and welcoming new ones has been truly heart-warming. It’s a testament to the kind and community-minded nature of the businesses we work with. ​To all our clients who donated, thank you. Your kindness and continued support make this initiative possible and help us make a real difference. If you’d like to get involved next year or learn more about the causes we support, we’d love to hear from you. Together, we can keep making a positive impact—one small gesture at a time.​

SHEFFIELD YOUNG PROFESSIONALS GET CAREER INSIGHT FROM LEADING FIGURE IN ACCOUNTANCY

Back to Blogs

​Last month, fifteen ACA/ACCA and AAT studiers from across South Yorkshire gathered for Sharp Consultancy’s first “Meet the Partner” breakfast networking event aimed at students within the accountancy profession.

Taking place at The Source in Sheffield, the attendees were given an insightful talk from a Partner at one of the largest practices in the region about their career and progression to become a figurehead at the firm.

Key discussion points included the importance of persisting with your studies, how this will help build the foundations of a successful long-term career, and how to build professional contacts and develop the skills needed to network confidently.

The event offered a refreshing overview of how the profession and market has developed in recent years and the significance of emotional intelligence and building lasting professional relationships which have become just as – if not more – important as the technical aspects of accounting for those wishing to achieve their career goals.

Attendees also participated in lively and open discussion into decisions involved in make a move into industry rather than staying in practice with a useful exploration of the various advantages and disadvantages to each.

The session concluded with an in-depth Q and A forum which enabled individuals to ask detailed questions about their own situation and the best steps to take in order to progress in their own careers. The interactive format allowed everyone to engage with their peers and offer support and ideas based on their own personal experiences.

With positive feedback from those involved, plans are well underway for the next event. For further information please contact Nabarun Dasgupta on nabarundasgupta@sharpconsultancy.com or 0114 261 1700
