Make the best of sponsorship opportunities
01/09/2010
Gareth Gammon, MD of Navigate Design, explains why he is proud that Petersfield First Friday – the business networking organization – supports the local community as Main Sponsors of the town’s two-day August Bank Holiday Festivities.
Gareth, a founder of First Friday seven years ago, says: "Petersfield is a vibrant, go-ahead place, even in these difficult times, and the business community is delighted to sponsor the August Festivities through First Friday, celebrating life in our great town.
"Petersfield came into prominence as a market town, and now in the 21st century a vibrant local economy is still just as important to quality of local life. To see the Square being used for trade and events, festivals and markets is so important, and the First Friday business network is pleased to support Petersfield Events and all the organizers of the August Festivities.
"Promoting great local events is a good way for a business or organization to back the community and keep its name in the public eye.”
The joint organizers of First Friday are: Gareth (Navigate Design); Mike Kirby (Antrobus Accountants); and Mary Ashardi (The Folly Wine Bar, upstairs). They are supported by Charlotte Oldham, Samantha Small and Roger Petch (Mackarness & Lunt), Giles Cleverly (Syn-Star), and Joy Bardon (associate partner at St James Wealth Management).
