News & Opinions
Once a month we will be showcasing a business, charity or person in business and publishing an interview with them.
As a firm we are passionate about the North East and the local communities in which we all live and work and we want to share its success stories.
If you think you stand out from the crowd and would like to take part in this series please email us with the following information:
Your full name, the business or charity in which you are involved and why you would like to take part.
If selected we will be in touch to interview.
