TWO leading organisations have joined forces to host a trade show in support of local businesses.

The Lockwood-based Mid Yorkshire Chamber of Commerce and the Federation of Small Businesses will stage the second Chamber-FSB Trade Show from 3pm to 7.30pm on Tuesday, June 11, at the Cedar Court Hotel, Ainley Top.

Members of both organisations are being urged to take stands at the event. No more than two businesses in each business sector are invited to exhibit and places are allocated on a first come, first serve basis.

The trade show is free to attend and will include keynote speakers Kate Hardcastle, of business transformation specialist Insight with Passion; and Michael Bell, president of Huddersfield and District Society of Chartered Accountants.

Chamber director Andrew Choi said: “We received some great feedback from last year’s trade show and after another tough year in business it is even more important to promote our members and give a boost to the local economy by demonstrating what local companies have to offer.”

Delegates can attend and view the exhibition free of charge. No more than two businesses in each business sector are exhibited and places are allocated on a first come, first serve basis.
