On Wednesday 8th July, Embrace hosted its very first networking event, and what a brilliant start it was. Held at the beautiful Bedford Swan Hotel & Thermal Spa, the event brought together a fantastic mix of local businesses, all keen to connect and collaborate, and learn more about the work Embrace does in the community. 

 

We were incredibly grateful to the Bedford Swan for generously allowing us to use The State Room free of charge. It proved to be the perfect setting for the occasion. With stunning views overlooking the embankment, and some very welcome air conditioning on one of the hottest days of the year, guests were able to network in comfort while enjoying the lovely surroundings. 

 

The event attracted a diverse and interesting group of attendees, which made for some really engaging conversations throughout the morning. Among those who joined us were representatives from a women’s health and wellness CIC, a psychic reader, a cake maker, a cyber security specialist, and a marketing agency, to name just a few. It was wonderful to see such a varied mix of industries coming together under one roof.
