BUSINESS was the buzz word at an event in Leominster earlier this month.

More than 50 local businesses visited the event at Grange Court and more than 10 exhibitors including Fastershire, Growth Accelerator, MetNet and Driving Innovation were also there.

The event gave local businesses a chance to gain knowledge about what support is available to them but also offered a chance to network.

Herefordshire and Worcestershire Chamber of Commerce was also on hand to give local businesses the latest information on business grants and funding advice.

Two more events have been arranged for later in the year with the first scheduled for May 8 at Ledbury Community Hall and another Ross-On-Wye to be confirmed.
