Local business magazine launches popular lunch club in Huddersfield

A new quarterly debate forum and networking opportunity has been launched in Huddersfield.

Following its success across other regions, including Leeds, Manchester and Sheffield, Mother Means Business (MMB) magazine has partnered with Katie Mallinson, MD of Huddersfield-based Scriba PR, to bring the MMB Private Lunch Club to the town.

Aimed at mid-senior level decision makers in the Kirklees and Calderdale region, the inaugural event took place at The Manor House in Lindley, where 15 invitees were encouraged to discuss and debate ‘the secret to a thriving workplace’.

Katie said: “I liked the format of the previous events held in other areas of the UK, and wanted the chance to give the people in the business community of Huddersfield a voice, and put us on the map, in this currently turbulent economic climate.”

Founder of MMB, Abbie Coleman, added: “My main reason for orchestrating these lunches was to get the right people around the table to bounce ideas off each other.

“It’s not about selling anything, but instead is focused on networking with - and learning from - the like-minded business community, and discussing issues surrounding resilience, in the present day.”
