A SERIES of networking events to be held at the Holiday Inn, Scotch Corner have been announced by the Richmond Business Network.

Scotch Corner Working Lunch events will take place every month with the hotel providing a mixture of hot and cold food from noon until 2pm for £10.

RBN regularly arranges successful breakfast and lunchtime networking events and promotes local businesses to potentially thousands of other businesses via its links throughout the Dales area, the North East and Yorkshire.

David Gibson from RBN said: "We're so pleased to have the support of the Holiday Inn, Scotch Corner, in this project.

“The hotel is a natural meeting place for both local and national business people and we hope that these working lunch events will provide the opportunity to make those important contacts.”

The first event will be on Wednesday and will have a Tour de France theme.
