🏆 Three cheers for Sam Carden, this year's first winner of our quarterly ‘Evo Values Champion’ award!   As our Creative Lead, Sam's expertise is vital to so much of what we do here, whether it's on client projects through Evo Agency - Google Premier Partner or supporting Evo Academy - Building Digital Futures and Evo Talent.   In the 5 years that Sam's been with Evo, he's been responsible for designing some of our biggest and best projects to date, along with some of the more novelty ideas we task him with for fun. He even designed this trophy! Here’s just a couple of the nominations that helped him to clinch it: 🗣️ “Sam always puts 100% into everything he does, such as being a superb mentor.” 🗣️ “DJ Carden nailed it at the Christmas party" - multitalented!

🎮 ⚽ Last week we held our inaugural office FIFA tournament! There is only so much we can play in our lunch hour, so it was decided that we needed a full evening to settle some scores and find the true champion. After fuelling up on some eat the bird, 9 players battled it out, and lots of shouting and goals later, our winners were decided - congrats Jake Patch and Sam Carden! Big thanks to Chris Sutton for 3D printing the incredible trophies too!

🏅 Congratulations Liz Peebles! It was a proud night on Thursday as we got to see Liz collect the ‘Unsung Hero’ award at the Notworking Networking Notty’s Awards. Here’s an excerpt from our nomination for Liz that sums up perfectly why she won: “She’s the person who makes the impossible look easy, all while keeping a smile on her face and the rest of us from falling apart. She’s the ultimate behind-the-scenes superstar, juggling client projects like a magician, managing deadlines like a time traveller, and somehow still finding time to make sure the team is happy, healthy, and not completely losing the plot. She’s the heartbeat of our team, always going the extra mile without ever asking for the spotlight. So if anyone deserves to win this award, it’s Liz - our unsung, behind-the-scenes legend.” 👏 👏 👏
