Two professional services firms in Harrogate are set to host a new networking event next week.

The event, hosted by Law firm Haddletons and insurance broker TL Dallas, will aim to bring together business people from across the district for an evening that combines heritage, networking, and local hospitality.

The ‘Historic Harrogate: Walk, Talk and Connect’ event is coming to Harrogate on Thursday 11th September.

James Haddleton, from Haddletons said:

“We wanted to create a fun event where people can network informally whilst getting a new insight into Harrogate’s history, and we’ve been bowled over with the number of attendees already registered.”

The event will begin at Harrogate Brewing Co on Royal Parade, where attendees will meet from 4.30pm for a complimentary drink.

At 5.30pm, participants will take part in a guided walk led by Harry of Walking Tours Harrogate, who is renowned for his expertise in the town’s history and landmarks.

The evening will conclude at Windsor House on Cornwall Road, where delegates will continue networking over light refreshments until 8.00pm.

Insurance broker, James Bright from TL Dallas, which is a fourth-generation family and employee-owned business, added:

“This event is designed to highlight Harrogate’s heritage whilst creating a valuable space for professional networking in a relaxed setting.

“We are really enjoying working with Haddletons and The Harrogate Brewing Co to encourage mutually beneficial connection in the local business community, and places are filling up fast!”

Attendance is free, but places are limited. Contact Sarah Johnson via email: admin@haddletons.com or call 0333 023 1700 for more information.
