What a fantastic morning at the beautiful Theatre Royal Wakefield for our September First Friday event. 🎭
The WAW community continues to grow, and it was amazing to see so many businesses from across the district connecting, collaborating and sharing ideas.
If you're a business based in Wakefield and haven't joined us yet, consider this your invitation to come along to our next event in October. 👋

A huge thank you to Sarah Shooter for sharing more about the incredible work happening at Theatre Royal Wakefield. Beyond the fantastic performances on stage, there is so much happening behind the scenes to support and inspire young people across our district.
We also heard from Phill Worthington of OnSide, who introduced the exciting plans for Wakefield Youth Zone, a purpose-built facility that will provide life-changing opportunities for thousands of young people across the district. It's an inspiring project, and one we're excited to watch develop over the coming years.
Most importantly, it was another morning filled with meaningful conversations, new connections and the collaborative spirit that makes the Wakefield business community so special.
Thank you to everyone who joined us. See you at the next one! 💛
