SCORES of women from across the region took part in the women in business well-being day, held last week by Network North-East, at the Copthorne Hotel, in Newcastle.

The event promoted well-being alongside business networking, and guests were able to take part in taster sessions of alternative therapies, with guest speaker, style consultant Allyson McCourt, offering advice.

A raffle raised £230 for Durham High School for Girls’ trip to help the people of Lesotho. For more information about Network North-East, which supports women in business, visit national-womensnetwork.co.uk
