CUMBRIAN entrepreneur Sue Howorth and founder of The Family Business Network and solicitors Langleys have launched the new Yorkshire Family Business Network.

The groups offers bespoke peer to peer learning network developed specifically for family businesses.

The Yorkshire arm of the family business support initiative is a joint-partnership between Sue Howorth and Langleys business development director Dave Clarkson.

The Family Business Network has been running successfully in Cumbria for more than four years and earlier this year expanded into supporting Lancashire family businesses.

Understanding the unique challenges faced by family businesses, Sue and Dave wanted to create a trusted environment where businesses can find value and insight, gain support and inspiration from others and engage in topical discussions and self-analysis.
