Henshaws leadership and motivation programme to return next month Henshaws' popular leadership and motivation programme is coming back in February, with all proceeds going to the charity. Henshaws, which supports people living with sight loss and other disabilities, held its first leadership and motivation session in September last year. Renowned businessman Rob Northfield hosted the first session and, following overwhelming positive feedback, encouraged the charity to launch a second date. Rob has over 40 years’ experience in leadership training and business development and has several successful training companies. He has trained many successful business owners and even helped football managers to move up in the league. Rob said:

“The Leadership Programme will help individuals reflect on their life, actions, and therefore results. “Designed to help us understand what we need to change or fine tune, that will improve results dramatically when dealing with others, and the motivation of themselves. “Everyone works so hard at Henshaws to improve the lives of young people with disabilities, that it is my pleasure to deliver this programme with all monies going towards supporting them in their goals.”

There will be a breakfast and networking lunch included, which will be a great opportunity to get to know the fellow attendees and share ideas. Wayne Topley, Managing Director at Cedar Court Hotels has said:
“With Rob’s energy and commitment to Harrogate and Henshaws amazing project they are delivering for the local community how could we say no! “Cedar Court are proud to support the community as well as giving us a chance to show off our newly refurbished and locally designed main ballroom. “It’s a great opportunity to play to our strengths around conference and events delivery as well as make great things happen for Henshaws.”
The course is aimed at anyone who is wanting to grow in their career or personal life. Flora Simpson, Senior Fundraiser at Henshaws, said:
“We were so over the moon with the success of Rob’s first event and are so happy to be able to bring this learning back. “We had such a great turn out from a host of local business owners and their teams but also individuals who are aiming for self-development. “Topics covered will include leadership in your business and personal life, memory and how to influence others, maintaining a positive attitude, how to stay motivated and motivate others and ways to achieve that perfect work life balance.”
Tickets are £99 each and can be purchased by contacting flora.simpson@henshaws.org.uk Flora added:
“We are so grateful to Rob for leading this event for us for a second time. His continued support for Henshaws is so inspiring and you can see how much he really cares about the cause. “Events like this really help to change the lives of our college students and Art Makers and for us to be able to continue to support them to go beyond expectations. “We would also like to give a huge thank you to Wayne Topley at Cedar Court Hotels for his generosity. “We hope the leadership event is a huge success and becomes a regular date in the diary.”
