A New Beginning at 50 | Opening of New Hegarty Bourne Office to celebrate 50th Anniversary

We are pleased to announce that Hegarty will be opening our new office in Bourne later this month. It will be our fifth office in the region and adds to the list of its existing locations in Peterborough, Market Deeping, Oakham and Stamford.

The new office, located at 11a North Street, Bourne PE10 9AE, is set to officially open its doors on 21st October 2024.

The opening of the firm’s Bourne office marks a significant milestone, with the company celebrating our 50th anniversary in October, expanding the company’s number of offices to five in exactly 50 years - and adding a rather satisfying synergy to the opening celebrations.

We will be welcoming residents of Bourne and the surrounding areas to meet the Hegarty team at an open day in the new office in Bourne from 12-6pm on Tuesday 22nd October. There will be an opportunity to see the new offices and chat to our team, whilst enjoying tea, coffee and cake!

The Bourne office will house a team of experienced solicitors specialising in family law and trust and probate services, providing residents with expert legal advice and support.

Additionally, we will also offer appointments at the Bourne office for those needing legal advice across a wide range of legal services, ensuring the Bourne and surrounding communities have full access to our team's expertise.

The finishing touches are now underway on work that has transformed the office building, which was previously Barclays Bank, into a modern, welcoming space that reflects Hegarty’s commitment to quality and client care.

"Opening our new office in Bourne to celebrate our 50th anniversary is a proud moment for us," said Chris Brown, Partner at Hegarty, who is also a local Bourne resident.

"We have always been dedicated to providing exceptional legal services to our clients, and this new location allows us to extend that commitment to the Bourne community. We are excited to bring our trusted legal services to this area, further strengthening our presence in Lincolnshire. We look forward to serving the Bourne community and continuing our long-standing tradition of providing exceptional legal services to our clients.”

The opening of our new Bourne office isn't the only exciting development within Hegarty’s 50th year. As part of our 50th anniversary celebrations, we set out to honour the ‘local firm’ ethos that has defined our identity for half a century, by committing to completing an inspiring journey of 50 fundraising and community support initiatives during 2024.

The goal at the start of the year was to raise £10,000 for local charities Sports Connections Foundation in Peterborough, MindSpace in Stamford, Pepper’s A Safe Place in Oakham and Dementia Support in Market Deeping. By July, our fundraising efforts had already surpassed this goal, with the monies raised now totalling almost £13,000.

Despite reaching our goal early, the Hegarty team have no plans of stopping yet, with plenty of further fundraising planned before the end of December.
