A networking group is celebrating a year-long partnership.
The HD8 Network, founded by Merewyn Sayers has been holding its networking events at the 315 Bar and Restaurant at Lepton – run by Jason Neilson – for the past 12 months.

The network was launched in April last year to support and promote the HD8 postcode area and started holding networking events in July.
At first, the event moved location each month and although there were many benefits to this, some people were getting confused where the next meeting was being held and it was also very time consuming for the organisers.
After their first visit to the 315 Bar and Restaurant last October, members agreed to make it their permanent home.
Merewyn said: “The 315 Bar and Restaurant have looked after us very well. It is a great place for a business networking event. It’s an aspirational yet friendly environment and the food has always been amazing”. At each meeting, the group takes part in Speed Networking and enjoy a meal.
Jason Neilson, head chef at 315, said: “We are really pleased that the HD8 Network have been holding their meet-ups here each month, it is great that local businesses get together, not just for the HD8 area, but for Huddersfield in general.2
The HD8 Network also operates on social media and via website www.HD8network.co.uk .
Said Merewyn: “My aim for the HD8 Network is to be the place to turn to for anyone that works, rests or plays in the area.”
