The event was organised by accountancy firm Wild & Co and brought together clients, colleagues and members of the local business community.

“It was fantastic to see so many people from our local business community there. We’re very lucky to be part of such a supportive network in Harrogate and people really got behind the event.

“Thank you to everyone who came along, donated and helped make the evening such a success. We hope everyone had as much fun as we did.”

Wild & Co also thanked Rooster’s Brewing Co for hosting the event, Pizza Social for providing the food, Shane for running the entertainment and representatives from Dementia Forward who attended.
