The UKSPF funding has allowed the project's growth and development with the appointment of a new Volunteering for All official. UKSPF funding made a tangible difference to Volunteers 4 All, enabling the team to bring an additional staff member on board, a crucial boost that meant more time, more outreach, and ultimately, more people supported into volunteering. That investment didn't just grow capacity; it expanded the impact. With extra hands and expertise, the team could connect even more local people with opportunities that suited their skills and passions. Support Staffordshire's Volunteer Brokerage Service continues to be at the heart of that work- free, friendly, and focused on helping people make a real difference in their communities. the funding helped strengthen a service that's already nationally recognised for quality, through NCVO and LIQA accreditation, and remains a vital link between volunteers and the hundreds of organisations that rely on them. -

Once the website goes live we are hoping to generate more work, more work means employing another installation fitting team" **Student-** "Flourish is a rewarding experience where you gain experience and new skills, you learn to connect with a small business and you can see the impact of your work on that business. I felt valued by the business at all stages of the project, and I feel very grateful to have had the opportunity of working with such a great business" Helping people who are struggling to manage their homes due to mental health challenges, or traumatic situations. **Objective-** Marketing review and implementing new approaches and content **Business:** "we would recommend this programme to other SME organizations.

It has helped me build confidence in my skills, especially in translating creative ideas into practical outcomes that support a business' goals. It's made me more open to exploring opportunities in Newcastle and more confident that I can build a fulfilling career without having to look far from home."

This program has helped to bridge a gap between students and industry. We have been extremely pleased with the student's performance and work ethic." **Student**: "My Flourish project provided me with valuable real-world experience in a professional setting. it has really opened my eyes to the opportunities available locally, especially in the tech and digital sectors. It showed me that there were are businesses in Newcastle that actively support and invest in young talent." - [Home](/ "Home") - [Register for 2026](https://phproductions.eventsair.com/shaping-the-future-business-festival/regform/Site/Register "Register for 2026") -

Each event transforms an existing venue into a temporary broadcast studio, combining a live audience with a multi-camera recording environment. This provides artists with broadcast-ready content, increased visibility, and experience of professional production standards. Alongside the live broadcast, the programme includes two complementary strands. Honey Comb and Honey Box Hive. Backed by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) and based at King Street Studios, the hive is already making an impact. A survey of local musicians with over 120 responses allowed them to tailor the Hive programme to specific local and industry needs. Hive workshops form the industry-facing strand of Honey Box Live, designed to improve understanding of how the music sector operates beyond performance. These sessions are structured as practical workshops, facilitated talks, panels or guided conversations, bringing together experienced practitioners from across the live, recorded and publicly funded music landscape. Content typically covers the practical realities of live music booking, working with live audio, routes into sync and publishing, public funding mechanisms, and even songwriting skills development. Sessions are delivered in accessible language and grounded in real-world experience, helping participants to better understand decision-making processes, expectations and constraints within the industry. Honey Comb is a series of regular events designed specifically for musicians and the wider community, including: Honey Comb brings artists together to share experience, exchange ideas and build meaningful professional relationships, both on and off stage. Sessions feature a stripped back, live performance from a local artist combined with live interview. The audience is activley encouraged to join in with questions, and the relaxed atmosphere encourages the guests to collaborate, network and offer other fellow musicians support alongside shared experience. Combined with the live broadcast and Hive workshops, Honey Comb forms part of an integrated delivery model that links performance, skills development and industry understanding, supporting artist progression while strengthening local music infrastructure and networks. -

The project restored and enhanced the wildlife pond in Brampton Park as a freely accessible public space, creating impactful volunteering opportunities and delivering engaging activities that boosted wellbeing and inspired people to value the natural environment. The programe was developed and delivered in partnership with local VCSE organization Groundwork, Staffordshire Wildlife Trust and local dementia specialists Father Hudson's care. Additional support was provided by Newcastle-under-Lyme parks team and a paid film placement. The project supported 31 volunteers who gave over 169 hours of their time. Volunteers met monthly to clear the wildlife space, put in new plants, build a dead hedge fence and bug hotel, and help design a new self-guided eco-wellbeing trail and signage. The beautiful new space was then brought to life with activities for families with young children, including seasonal story-times, and Nature Tots sessions, which introduced them to the importance of protecting wildlife. The summer session explored worms and mini-beasts, the autumn session introduced hedgehogs, and the winter session explored birds. Ten dementia-friendly wellbeing sessions used live music to bring back happy memories, which proved especially popular with care homes. - [Home](/ "Home") - [Register for 2026](https://phproductions.eventsair.com/shaping-the-future-business-festival/regform/Site/Register "Register for 2026") -

By working closely with a cohort of local, innovation-ready businesses, the project helped shape and deliver 12 detailed funding bids, supporting the adoption of new technologies and the creation of sustainable growth strategies. Through close collaboration with Keele University academics, participating companies gained access to world-class research expertise, technical insight, and creative problem-solving. this partnership approach gave businesses the confidence and capability to make bold steps forward - from product development and process improvement to expanding their innovation capacity. Beyond individual business support, Moving Ahead established the Newcastle-under-Lyme Innovation Network- a community that connected enterprises, researchers, and sector leaders. Through events, peer-to-peer learning and collaborative projects, the network fostered a strong culture of innovation across the borough and left a lasting legacy of shared knowledge, ambition, and collaboration. -

In March this year, the first ever Shaping the Future Newcastle-under-Lyme Business Festival, attracted 300 attendees, with 20 keynote speakers sharing their insights and 25 interactive and educational workshops delivered across the week-long festival. Following its success organisations – including entrepreneurs, artists and charities – are now being asked to share their own suggestions on what they would like to see for the return of the festival – which is being organised by Newcastle under Lyme Borough Council in collaboration with PH Production Services and has received funding from the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF). Peter Herbert of PH Productions said: “There was a lot to take away from the first festival, and plenty to learn from. While the festival is about bringing organisations together to connect, it also about learning and how to grow together to support Newcastle-under-Lyme, which is why we are inviting local organisations to come forward and let us know their thoughts on what they would like to see – or do – for the return of the Newcastle-under-Lyme Business Festival – which will take place between 16 – 20 March, 2026.” During the first festival various events also took place at Keele University – who are partnering with the organisers once again for 2026. Stephen Roberts, Business Engagement Manager at Keele University said: “The 2025 Newcastle-under-Lyme Business Festival helped us to bring together not just businesses, but also educational establishments and members of the creative industry, who joined together to either share their knowledge and expertise or hosted various networking events at their venues. “For instance keynote speeches from Andy Spinoza author of Manchester Unspun and Pottery Throw-downs Keith Brymer Jones took place at Newcastle-under-Lyme College, investment advisor John Straw spoke at Keele University and a full day’s networking took place at the Denise Coates Foundation Building, where businesses had the opportunity to exhibit.” Other highlights of the 2025, event included an insightful talk on the ceramic industry from Hannah Ault, CEO of Valentines Clay and Vice President Of The British Ceramics Confederation, whilst Rob Fisher from Strategi Solutions and Chris Daniels of Cyberkiln, took to the stage to deliver sessions amongst many others. A packed out Women in Business event also took place at King Street Studios, hosted by Sonya Farrall of BabaBaboon PR, which welcomed speakers Wendy Dean of Strategi, Allison Walters of AwScape and Kerry Bonfiglio of Keele University.

Following the success of last year’s launch, the festival will return with bigger venues, new themes, and even more opportunities for businesses to connect, collaborate, and grow. Over five days, the festival will bring together entrepreneurs, established firms, educators, and creative leaders for a programme of workshops, talks, and networking sessions. Events will be hosted in multiple venues across the town, including Keele University, St Giles Church, King Street Studios, Keele in Town and several other locations, turning Newcastle-under-Lyme into a hub of enterprise and innovation. This year’s programme will explore key themes such as employment and entrepreneurship, women in business, digital innovation, and creative collaboration. Attendees will be able to join panel discussions, practical workshops, and drop-in advice clinics designed to support businesses at every stage of their journey. Pete Herbert, Director of PH Production Services, the team delivering the festival said, “Shaping the Future is all about creating momentum, opening up conversations, and showcasing the best of Newcastle-under-Lyme’s business community. The second festival will be an even stronger platform for local businesses to learn and connect.” As well as its packed programme, the festival will provide plenty of informal networking opportunities, helping delegates make lasting connections. Thanks to the support of partners including Staffordshire Chamber of Commerce, We Are Staffordshire and the borough council the festival will remain free to attend, ensuring accessibility for all. Organisers promise that the 2026 edition will not only celebrate the strengths of the local business community but also spark fresh collaborations and new ideas that continue long after the festival ends. Geoff Beadle from Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council explained, “We want this festival to become a fixture in Newcastle-under-Lyme’s calendar. With the programme we’re building for March 2026, we’re confident it will be bigger, bolder, and even more inspiring than before.” - [Home](/ "Home") - [Register for 2026](https://phproductions.eventsair.com/shaping-the-future-business-festival/regform/Site/Register "Register for 2026") -

The programme spanned five themed days, bringing together entrepreneurs, innovators, students and community leaders to share ideas, learn new skills and make valuable connections. Across the week, the festival delivered over 25 workshops and activities, supported by 20 expert speakers and panellists in 14 venues around the town. Keele University, Newcastle College, Castle House, King Street Studios and the Guildhall were among the locations that hosted events, alongside open-door businesses, vibrant market showcases and drop-in advice hubs. The topics covered were wide-ranging and practical. Attendees explored HR consultancy, self-employment, marketing and design, bookkeeping, payroll, and responsible business practices. More forward-looking sessions included introductions to AI, interactive technology demonstrations, and discussions on future innovation. Specialist workshops also looked at landscape and architecture, mental health in entrepreneurship, and the role of non-verbal communication in leadership. Keynote speakers added further inspiration. Potter and broadcaster Keith Brymer Jones opened with insights into creativity and design; innovation expert John Straw unpacked disruptive technologies including AI, robotics and augmented reality; and writer Andy Spinoza reflected on Manchester’s growth through the interaction of pop, property and politics. Panels included senior voices from Keele University, Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council and Staffordshire Chambers of Commerce, while business stories from local entrepreneurs highlighted the role of resilience, creativity and networking in building success. The festival also celebrated the contribution of women in business, with sessions led by Wendy Dean of Strategi Solutions, Sonya Farrall of BabaBaboon and Emma Bonfiglio from Keele University, alongside networking at King Street Studios. On the final day, businesses across the town opened their doors for tours, giving visitors a chance to meet employers, explore workplaces and learn about local opportunities. Pete Herbert, co-producer of the festival and Director of PH Production Services, said: *“The Business Festival showed just how much talent, energy and innovation there is in Newcastle-under-Lyme. From hands-on workshops to inspiring keynote talks, it gave people the chance to learn, connect and think differently about the future of business. What made it special was the variety – one moment you could be learning about bookkeeping or HR, the next about AI, mental health, or the journey of a local entrepreneur. That mix is what makes this festival unique.”* By combining professional insight with community engagement, the 2025 Business Festival not only strengthened networks within Newcastle-under-Lyme but also highlighted the town’s potential as a hub for enterprise, creativity and innovation. -

Steph Talbot is the Co-founder of Loui’s Kitchen, which was set up to provide a place of employment for her grandson Loui, who has autism. Steph will be sharing an insight into the challenges which have been faced by her family when seeking employment opportunities for Loui. Other speaker at the event - which takes place at Keele University on Thursday 20 November, and is being organised by Connects Network - is Jodie Steele, of Newcastle-under-Lyme. Jodie will be drawing on her lived experience with Functional Neurological Disorder and ADHD, and why she has set up the online platform Alchemy Souls Travel, which is dedicated to empowering neurodivergent and wellness-focused travellers. Steph said: “Talking about neurodiversity at Connects Network isn’t just about sharing Loui’s story and successes, it’s an opportunity to reach a wider community. “To encourage others to take steps that help more people thrive in inclusive workplaces and spark a conversation that turns understanding into action across different organisations.” Jodie added: “I’m excited to speak at Connects at Keele to help share the reality of high performance from the inside - the pace and the cost, and the turning points where success and health collide. “I’ll be talking about how I learned to work with my wiring, not against it, and how redefining success on my own terms helped me regain balance. Most importantly, I want to help colleagues and workplaces understand how supporting people who think differently allows everyone to thrive.” Steph and Jodie will also be joined by third speaker Helen Roger, who is training officer at Community and Volunteer Services Cheshire East. Helen will explore working with VCFSE organisations to understand their unique needs and provide them with support to achieve their objectives. Connects are partnering with Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council - in preparation for the Shaping the Future Business Festival 2026, and is supported by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund and Keele University. A previous event organised by Connects took place at the Keele location in September, where Johnny Shelton of Staffordshire Film Office, Grace Jordan Director of Stoke Film Theatre and Group Managing Director of Knights Group Holdings PlcAndrew Pilkington shared their knowledge and expertise with attendees. -

Former News Reporter and Sports Editor, Sonya Farrall of PR firm, BabaBaboon, delivered an introductory session in October, which attracted a variety of businesses including an insurance firm, visitor attraction centre and volunteer focused organisation. The half-day sessions, which took place at King Street Studios and Knights Solicitors, was delivered following funding support from Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council and the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF). Practical tools on how to identify newsworthy stories were shared as well as attendees exploring their own PR pitches. To continue the PR support a second session is to take place on Thursday 26 November, with the support of legal firm Knights, who are providing a venue space. “I found the first workshop both insightful and energising. The practical tips and real-world examples really brought the topic to life,” said Baz Tameez, Head of Operations North at Support Staffordshire. “It was also great to network with other partners and see all the good work they are doing and how we could work together.” Peter Lycett, Commercial Director of AMB Insurance Services Limited, said: “As a small business owner you have to wear many hats and know just enough about a lot of functions. I must admit that PR was something I knew little about but I do know it’s important, and it’s powerful. “Sonya offered really practical advice that helped us to think about how we should think about our business needs - the strategy if you like. Then we delved into what we were doing as a business which we could shout about. “Overall it was an excellent event with some fantastic and easy takeaways.” Elizabeth Wilson, is Marketing and Events Assistant at PH Productions, who also attended the October event, and said: “It was great to be able to attend the workshop, as it was really engaging and great to hear other people's perspectives and opinions. “I now feel more confident with what I should be putting in my own press release and how to get my message across. As a recent Keele Graduate on placement with PH Production Services, being able to access this level of training, alongside UKSPF projects, is really important for my career development.” Sonya added: “These workshops are their to support other organisations in learning more about a PR process and to also help them to identify opportunities to share positive news with impact.” The first Newcastle-under-Lyme Business Festival - which took place in March 2025 and featured a variety of workshops and events - was organised by Newcastle under Lyme Borough Council in collaboration with PH Production Services and was funded by UKSPF.

The Advanced and Digital Technologies Innovation Accelerator (ADTIA) programme is a fully funded initiative supporting businesses to develop or adopt digital or new technologies. Funded through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) via Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council, the ADTIA programme has supported 26 local businesses since its launch, helping to drive innovation across the region. Concentric Solutions, an independent finance transformation and business analytics consultancy, received 360 hours of support to develop an Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) reporting solution, tailored to help SMEs stay ahead of compliance requirements while enhancing their sustainability credentials. MSc Software Engineering graduate Ridwan Olaide Idowu, mentored by academic expert Dr Mehak Memon, was appointed as an Innovation Consultant for the project. The collaboration proved so successful that Concentric Solutions extended Ridwan’s role through the University’s in-house recruitment agency Unitemps, with part-funding from Higher Education Innovation Funding (HEIF). Now, Ridwan has secured a full-time position within the company’s technical team to continue developing the solution in-house. Reflecting on his experience, Ridwan said: “The ADTIA programme provided an invaluable opportunity to apply my academic knowledge in a real industry setting. Working alongside experienced professionals gave me insights into how research, innovation, and sustainability intersect in the corporate world. The mentorship and structured support offered through the programme also helped me to strengthen my professional and interpersonal skills. “I’m proud to now continue this journey as a full-time member of the team. It feels very rewarding and humbling. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to continue contributing to impactful projects within such a forward-thinking team.” He added: “I would strongly encourage any student looking for meaningful industry engagement to take advantage of initiatives like this.” David Watson, Managing Director at Concentric Solutions, said: “The ADTIA programme has provided real, tangible value to Concentric Solutions. Having the opportunity to collaborate with a talented graduate such as Ridwan, meant we were able to progress the development of our ESG reporting solution at a time when our internal team was operating at full capacity. Ridwan brought a fresh perspective, enthusiasm and strong analytical skills that complemented our consulting expertise. “Ridwan exceeded all our expectations during his time on the ADTIA programme. It was a natural decision to retain him through Unitemps and subsequently offer a permanent position. Beyond the immediate project benefits, the experience also highlights the value of collaboration between industry and academia in driving innovation for SMEs.” Justin Pover, Project Manager at University of Staffordshire, said: “This is a great example of how universities can support regional innovation while boosting graduate employability. Ridwan’s success story demonstrates the mutual benefits of collaboration – local businesses get access to our expertise, and our talented graduates gain invaluable industry experience which improves their job prospects. “If any businesses are interested in learning more about how we can help, we’d love to hear from you.” -

Meanwhile, Newcastle and Stafford Colleges Group representatives Selina Rudzik and Fiona Rae will be sharing information about T Levels, apprenticeships and adult learning qualifications and Jas Bahra, director of partnerships at AMW Renewables will be sharing practical insights into the funded support available to organisations to meet their net zero targets.  Connects @ Keele is the third in a series of events to take place in the build up to the second Shaping the Future Newcastle-under-Lyme Business Festival in March.  Peter Herbert, director of not-for-profit Connects Network, said: “We have had two really positive Connects @ Keele events in recent months with some fantastic speakers and we are really looking forward to bringing our third session ahead of the 2026 business festival.  “January’s focus is all centred on up-skilling and employability, therefore we are delighted to have representatives from the Staffordshire and Stoke Skills Hub along with the Federation of Small Businesses and Newcastle and Stafford Colleges Group.  “Each of these organisations can provide really vital and useful information for organisations looking to either expand their skills or recruit.”  Peter added: “Net Zero is also a hot topic and therefore those attending will be able to learn from the very experienced Jas Bahra who has a wealth of experience in sustainability.”  The event will start from 9.30am and lunch will also be provided.  -

Project Manager Suzanne Quinn from the Staffordshire and Stoke Skills Hub, will be explaining opportunities available for businesses to connect with training providers to close skills gaps and unlock growth. Three different break-out rooms will also be taking place during the event - which is taking place at the Denise Coates Building, Keele University on Tuesday 20 January. Karen Woolley, Development Manager for Staffordshire and the West Midlands at the Federation of Small Businesses will provide a talk on late payments and support for SMEs, whilst Newcastle and Stafford Colleges Group representatives Selina Rudzik and Fiona Rae will be sharing information about T Levels, apprenticeships and adult learning qualifications. Director of Partnerships at AMW Renewables, Jas Bahra - who has a wealth of experience across technology, engineering and sustainability - will also be sharing practical insights into the funded support available to organisations to meet their net zero targets. Connects @ Keele is the third in a series of events to take place in the build up to the second Shaping the Future Newcastle-under-Lyme Business Festival. The events have been organised by Connects Network - who partnered with Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council last year to help to organise the festival and are continuing to do so again this year. The 2026 business festival will take place from 16 - 20 March and is supported by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund and Keele University. “We have had two really positive Connects @ Keele events in recent months with some fantastic speakers and we are really looking forward to bringing our third session ahead of the 2026 business festival,” said Peter Herbert, Director of not-for-profit Connects Network. “January’s focus is all centred on up-skilling and employability, therefore we are delighted to have representatives from the Staffordshire and Stoke Skills Hub along with the Federation of Small Businesses and Newcastle and Stafford Colleges Group. “Each of these organisations can provide really vital and useful information for organisations looking to either expand their skills or recruit.” Peter added: “Net Zero is also a hot topic and therefore those attending will be able to learn from the very experienced Jas Bahra who has a wealth of experience in sustainability.” In November last year the second Connects @ Keele event focused on health, wellbeing and neurodiversity in the workplace, whilst in September legal and film experts shared their knowledge to local businesses. Connects at Keele 3, will start from 9:30am and lunch will also be provided.

The Honey Box Hive Songwriting: Craft and Context session - which has received UKSPF funding from Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council and will be delivered by the bands founder Joe Hulme and bandmate Mike Walsh - will take place on Sunday 18 January, at King Street Studios in Newcastle-under-Lyme. During the workshop participants will delve into the songwriting process looking at lyrics and rhythm as well as cultural and historical context. Joe and Mike will also lead on a speciality process of theirs, which incorporates personal experiences, everyday details and awareness of cultural positioning to help with the creation of original songs. “The workshops are there to give people time to actually think about what they’re doing,” says Joe. “It’s not about rushing to finish something, it’s about slowing down a bit, looking at where songs come from and giving them the space they need to develop properly - which I think is really important, especially for people finding their feet.” The Honey Box Hive artist development programme is run by King Street Studios and is a gateway to industry employment opportunities such as presenter, technical support and crew roles. Hive development sessions are led by music industry professionals and are supported by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund. Several former participants have also gone on to freelance for the live streamed music show - Honey Box Live - which features original performances from talented up-and-coming-local artists and filmed in front of a studio audience. Honey Box has so far produced nine seasons of events, featured over 130 local artists and now tours the country, with the next broadcasts and gigs in Leicester and then Wolverhampton. Pete Herbert of King Street Studios said: “Thanks to initial support from UKSPF, we were able to consult with the local music community to ask what was needed, that research identified development needs in several areas and so we were able to create the Hive Workshops. Marketing, publishing, touring, technical support and artist development for writing music were all identified as a local need, so to be able to provide workshops like the one the brilliant Average Joe are running on 18 January, is important and the feedback we receive from these sessions is brilliant.” Average Joe are well-known in the local music scene and have performed at various Stoke-on-Trent venues during the last eight years - including the talent spotting - The Sugarmill, in Hanley. On Saturday 2 May, the band is set to perform at a Craig Charles’ Funk and Soul Club Bank Holiday Special for BBC Music at Keele University Student Union. The Honey Box Hive Songwriting: Craft and Context session will start at 9:30am on Sunday 18 January. Bookings are required and bands and musicians are asked to complete this form here to check suitability for the free workshop. - [Home](/ "Home") - [Register for 2026](https://phproductions.eventsair.com/shaping-the-future-business-festival/regform/Site/Register "Register for 2026") -

The Music Awards of Staffordshire and Cheshire, which received more than 300 entries, will be taking place on Wednesday 28 January, at the New Vic Theatre. The event, which is organised by Lee Barber of The Buzz Stoke, along with the team at Honey Box Live, will also feature a performance from Essex-born folk singer, Beans on Toast, who has performed around the globe and played Glastonbury festival every year since 2007. Lee Barber said: "Mike Lloyd delivered real, lasting infrastructure for music in Stoke-on-Trent and beyond for more than 60 years, he supported artists at the start of their careers and helped sustain venues, audiences and opportunities over decades. "This award recognises contribution measured by commitment, consistency and delivery and naming it after Mike Lloyd sets a clear benchmark for what meaningful contribution to music looks like." Lee, who led the first awards in 2016, and has since partnered on the awards delivery with the Honey Box Live team, added: "The Music Awards of Staffordshire & Cheshire is to celebrate the incredible wealth of talent the area's music offers us, talent that often goes all too easily unnoticed. "These talented musicians deserve to be put on pedestals and celebrated widely, and that is the aim of the Awards. "It gives musicians some well earned recognition, something to look back on, and of course something they can use moving forward - approaching a new promoter or venue as an award winning act surely gives you a certain cutting edge? "Plus the awards are designed to showcase the amazing local music scene to new ears, providing a route for music lovers of the area to find new - and most importantly - local music which they can fall in love with." Following 1200 public votes, 54 finalists are now up for awards in nine categories including Best New Act, Best Band and Best Solo Act. Pete Herbert, co-producer of Honey Box Live - said: "The Music Awards of Staffordshire & Cheshire are without a doubt very special in their own right, and it's such a fantastic way to celebrate our local musical talent. "Recently the local music scene lost a true legend in Mike Lloyd, whose impact on music was built on action and we wanted to do something to honour him and his legacy, which is why we have introduced an award in his honour with the blessing of his family." As well as The Music Awards of Staffordshire & Cheshire, free to attend workshops will be taking place at the venue during the afternoon. The awards and the workshops have received support from Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council and the UK Shared Prosperity Fund. Lee Barber will host Local Venue Managers Coalition exploring what local venues are looking for when booking bands, Sync Publishing with Sentric records and Kris Tomkinson will lead a panel exploring the Benefits and Challenges of a Strategic Music Board. There will also be a Funding Panel which has received support from Arts Council England. Registration is required for the workshops and more details can be found on the Music Awards of Staffordshire and Cheshire website [here](https://phproductions.eventsair.com/music-awards-of-staffordshire-and-cheshire/booking/Site/Register). -
