AN East Morton woman is celebrating 25 years with estate agent Dacre Son & Hartley.

Sales negotiator Cath Bradbury, who works at the Bingley office, initially joined the company on a part-time basis.

"I worked weekends after having my first son," she said.

"I have also covered the Keighley area during my time with the firm and worked more hours as my children got older.

"Initially working on reception, my role has grown and changed as my experience has expanded.

"I thoroughly enjoy my job. No day is ever the same and it's great to be part of such a busy office."

Two other employees – Gail Shepherd, from the Knaresborough branch, and Frances Slocombe, who is based at Baildon – have also clocked-up a quarter century.

Patrick McCutcheon, the company's head of residential sales, said: "Gail, Frances and Cath have a wealth of experience and they are all stalwarts of our business.

"We are delighted to celebrate their 25-year anniversaries with them and are very grateful for their years of professionalism and dedication."
