in good hands and I wish everyone well for what I am certain will be a successful future.”
Maynard Burton, chairman of mfg Solicitors added: “I have had the pleasure of working closely with Peter for the whole time he was with the firm. I cannot speak highly enough of him as a solicitor and as a person.
“He really is such a popular person and that’s because of his kindness, hard work and willingness to help anyone. We will miss him but I know he is going to enjoy a really happy and well-deserved retirement, safe in the knowledge he is passing things on to Ben who is a real rising star in the legal industry.
“On behalf of everyone here at mfg Solicitors, I’d like to wish Peter all the best in his retirement and I know we will stay in close touch with him.”
During his retirement Mr Copsey will remain in his role as a governor of local charity Sebright’s Educational Foundation and will continue as a trustee of several will trusts. A ‘fair-weather’ supporter of West Bromwich Albion Football Club, he also plans to continue cheering on the team at The Hawthorns as often as he can on dry, sunny match days.
Christmas Charity Donations by QualitySolicitors Parkinson Wright
Paulette Clarke

After another difficult year for many families as a result of the global pandemic, QualitySolicitors Parkinson Wright spent the latter weeks of 2021 collecting donations and purchasing festive goods to deliver to two local charities.
The firm’s nominated charity West Mercia Women’s Aid provides invaluable assistance to victims of domestic abuse throughout West Mercia and Gloucestershire. Their work includes 24 hour domestic abuse helplines, refuge, and recovery support for survivors. They also support children and young people who have been affected by domestic abuse. QSPW works closely with the charity in recognition of the extraordinary work they do and the vulnerable people they help. The firm have been supporting WMWA since 2013. In December 2021, Paulette Clarke organised a collection to purchase a selection of toys for children who would be spending Christmas in a refuge. Paulette is pictured below with a selection of the toys.
Sam Thompson at our Evesham office arranged for donations of food and healthcare products to be provided to a local charity, Caring Hands, who offer support to the homeless and vulnerable in the Vale of Evesham area. Caring Hands was founded in 2003 and support people in need on a referral basis. The growing success of the charity has resulted in them now looking to obtain their own building, the Lighthouse Centre, which will be a hub for services for the homeless and those on low incomes.
Sam, pictured above, delivered treats and essentials donated by staff in the Evesham office, which were used by the charity as part of Christmas Hampers and food parcels, and also in their drop-in diner over the festive period.
The firm is pleased to be able to make a continuing contribution to vital local charities such as these, and would encourage any readers to have a look at the incredible work that these charities do for members of our community:
