MEMBERS of Women@Work from Ilkley, Addingham and Burley-in-Wharfedale were among the 60 professional women to attend an evening networking event at Keelham Farm Shop in Skipton.
The guest speaker and owner of Keelham Farm, Victoria Robertshaw, spoke about her own journey in business and the inspirational story of how Keelham Farm has grown and developed over the years.
Guests enjoyed informal networking and Keelham juices on arrival, risotto prepared by Keelham's chef and a quartet of home-made desserts.
Victoria’s presentation was followed by further opportunities to chat to fellow guests and shopping in the farm shop, which had kindly extended its opening hours for the event.
Victoria said: “It was fantastic to meet so many female entrepreneurs working in and around Skipton, and to have a forum where we can share our experiences and support one another.
"This event was a great opportunity to tell Keelham’s story, and by hosting it here in Skipton, guests could see for themselves the fruits of our labours. I’d like to thank everyone who came along as we had some really lovely feedback on both the event and the shop.”
