We Are Wakefield members and first timers will enjoy breakfast and networking at Unity Hall & Business Space. We will hear all about this historic venue. We will also hear from Independent Chair of Creative Wakefield, Dr Steven Michael OBE: “We Are Creative Wakefield”!
There will be an optional tour of Unity Hall business spaces at the end of the event at 11.30am.
Your mission throughout the morning will be to form new connections through great conversations! Make 2025 your year for WAW COLLABORATION!
Event Disclaimer: Accessibility & Noise Levels
Our aim is to consider the needs of all our members and visitors to create an inclusive, welcoming environment at every event.
As we host events in different venues, noise levels and surroundings may vary. While we are mindful of this, networking and group gatherings can sometimes be loud, which we appreciate may be challenging for some individuals, including those who are hearing impaired, neurodiverse, or sensitive to sound.
If you require accommodations please speak to a member of the WAW team. A quieter space has been allocated in Minor Hall on Floor 4 – just across the landing from Major Hall where the event will take place.
The event will take place in Major Hall on the 3rd Floor – there is a lift available for access.
Thank you for your understanding and for helping us make our events accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
