Winston Solicitors: Leeds law firm supports local business with new way to network
Fuelled by coffee and croissants, the LS8 Meet-up is hailed as the first completely unstructured networking event in North Leeds.
At its heart is the belief that people buy from people, promoting a holistic approach to customer/client relationships over the hard sell format.
As the brainchild of family law expert, Teresa Davidson, the LS8 Meet-up Group has provided a much needed space for relationships of all kinds to blossom.
When asked about the success of the event, the Winston Solicitors Partner said: "We're thrilled with the growth and success we've achieved in such a short time.
"It's testament to the incredible businesses and professionals in North Leeds and their dedication to strengthening our local community. We look forward to continuing to build valuable connections and making a positive impact."
With a chance to build community spirit and an opportunity to give to local charities with a fun raffle incentive, it’s easy to see why the LS8 Meet-ups have been so successful.
Feedback from attendees has been fantastic, with many stating that they have already seen the financial benefit from the informal meet-ups, as well as those who have made lasting friendships.
While many professional networking events focus on generating sales, the LS8 group centres around creating a friendly atmosphere that sparks genuine connection. It follows the mindset of the Winston Solicitors family team, who approach their clients with unrivalled open-mindedness and compassion.
“Gone are the days of ‘taking people to the cleaners’ during a divorce. It’s about helping people to make the right decisions for the whole family, rather than trying to bleed the other party dry. That’s what we wanted to take into the LS8 Meet-up: a way for people to connect on a deeper level, developing lasting relationships, rather than just trying to make a quick sale.” said Harriet Reid, Family Law Expert
The LS8 Meet-up group takes place on a bimonthly basis at The Leeds Deli in Roundhay.
A delicious continental breakfast is provided by the venue, which prides itself on creating a cosy atmosphere for people from all over the community to meet.
Each meet-up benefits a local charity, chosen by raffle winners, and the winners themselves walk away with a fantastic bag of goodies from The Leeds Deli. As a festive gesture, the family team at Winson Solicitors sent treats from Chapel Allerton-based personalised biscuit experts, The Biskery, to all who attended throughout 2023.
More and more North Leeds businesses have expressed interest in attending these intimate networking events since its inception. However, attendance levels are capped at 20 and there’s a lengthy waiting list of people ready to step in, should there be any dropouts.
