Connecting in nature: HWB Director Michaela Johns joined fellow business leaders for an open-air networking opportunity centred around a woodland walk in beautiful scenery on the Dorset-Hampshire border. Michaela was our representative at the latest Connecting in Nature outing held by @Dorset Chamber of Commerce & Industry. It took place at the beautiful @Moors Valley Country Park near Ringwood. Michaela’s dog Oscar also enjoyed the visit and ended up doing quite a few more miles than everyone else! Events like this are an ideal chance to meet contacts old and new while experiencing the natural surroundings that are right on our doorstep.
