A POPULAR business networking event will return to South Cumbria this month with attendees being treated to a brewery tour as part of the evening.

The in-Cumbria business magazine networking event will return to south Cumbria on Wednesday, June 26 for an evening of networking hosted by the Bowness Bay Brewery at Castle Mills in Kendal.

The event will allow networkers to enjoy a wonderful summer evening of contact building in the fabulous Lake District.

Bowness Bay Brewing has built an enviable reputation for the consistent taste and quality of the companies ales and lagers.

Rick Eastwood, Operations Director at Bowness Bay Brewery, said: "We are hosting this event with the intention of connecting with other local businesses and showcasing our work to them.

"It's a great opportunity for us to foster meaningful relationships within the community, share our expertise, and strengthen our collaborative efforts."

The networking event will involve a brewery tour, which includes samples of the produce and a talk from Rick Eastwood, plus plenty of networking.

Newsquest Cumbria regional editor Joy Yates has encouraged everyone to book at what will be a 'pretty perfect way' to spend a few hours.

Joy said: “We are looking forward to returning to south Cumbria for an in-Cumbria business magazine networking event when there is so much to celebrate in the area. A huge thank you to Rick Eastwood for hosting us at Bowness Bay Brewing and providing a tour.

“A free networking event with a brewery tour coupled with sample tastings and a chance to catch up with business contacts new and established sounds like a pretty perfect way to spend a couple of hours.

“Please sign-up asap to secure your place and I look forward to hearing everyone’s updates to feature in our portfolio of newspapers, websites and magazines.”

The networking event will take place at the Bowness Bay Brewery in Kendal on Wednesday, June 26 from 5pm. The event is free and you can register for a ticket here.
