How do you spend your Wednesday mornings?

Some of our Chester le Street group went down to Activate Metrocentre to try out their games this morning.

An amazing time was had, only made better by our usual breakfast from Olivia’s Kitchen.

Thanks so much for having us.

If anyone’s looking for a corporate/group activity we would all highly recommend.

✨ MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: Harry Forster from Grace House North East ✨

This morning we handed the spotlight over to Harry from Grace House, who shared more about his career, the work Grace House does and his journey over the last 5 years with the charity 👏🧡

It was lovely to hear more about Harry, his role and the experience he’s built up during his time there.

A massive thank you to Harry for sharing his story with the group, and congratulations on an amazing 5 years at Grace House! 🥳👏

Our member and guest spotlights are a great opportunity to go beyond the usual introductions and give the room a proper insight into you, your business or organisation and what you do.

🤝 If you’d like to join us at an upcoming NE Networking meeting, or you’d be interested in taking one of our guest spotlight slots, drop us a message and we’ll get you booked in! 📩

Great day for our summer social yesterday at Golf Fang Newcastle.

Lovely time was had by all and no one got even slightly competitive (Laura 🤪)

Thanks to everyone who came along, watch this space for our winter social.
