Entrepreneur events at Blackwell Grange Hotel, Darlington

Grow Together

Entrepreneur events built around real conversation, not networking checklists.

Some of the biggest shifts in business don’t happen behind your desk.

They happen in conversations.

In the right room. With the right people. Around the right question.

Why these entrepreneur events exist

That’s why I now host a small number of carefully curated events throughout the year.

Each one explores a different topic that matters to entrepreneurs – mindset and business growth, writing, creativity, leadership, and the realities of building a meaningful business.

Rather than traditional networking, these are mornings designed to spark ideas, encourage honest conversations and leave you with practical insights you can actually use.

Next Event: October 2026

A little update, and an invitation.

I’m moving away from monthly networking to fewer, more intentional themed events throughout the year, each with a dedicated focus, inspiring speakers and genuine conversation.

Here’s the first, in the new format.

📍 Blackwell Grange Hotel, Darlington
📅 Thursday 1st October
🕙 10:00am – 12:00pm
🎟️ £15

The Theme: Writing Your Business Book

By then, my own book should finally be out – which makes this one especially meaningful.

I’ll be joined by guest speakers from the writing, editing and publishing world to explore why you’d write one, how to start, and what it really takes to finish.

Whether you’ve dreamed of writing a book or you’re simply curious, I’d love for you to join us.
