Dozens of the Midlands’ leading retail property agents enjoyed a night of magic and retail-themed cocktails when London & Cambridge Properties (LCP) held its annual social event, in conjunction with the Shop Agent Society (SAS).

More than 60 agents – some of whom travelled from Liverpool and London for the event – enjoyed rooftop drinks in the early evening sunshine when they met at The Church pub in Hockley and were entertained by close-up magician Magic Singh, who thrilled those attending with his sleight-of-hand tricks.

Those attending included agents from Lambert Smith Hampton, DTZ, Burley Browne, GVA and Cushman & Wakefield.

Jo Salmon, retail portfolio manager of LCP , said: “It’s always good to catch up with everyone in a social setting and it was a great way to mark what has been a busy 12 months for our retail team, which has expanded and realised lots of new business opportunities.”
