Celebrating Community at the Tenant Summer Social

On Thursday 4 September, Ards Business Hub welcomed tenants, the Board of Directors, staff and local councillors to our annual Tenant Summer Social. The evening was a chance to step away from busy schedules and enjoy a relaxed, informal gathering with great food and even better company.

Guests were treated to a delicious spread of BBQ favourites, woodfired pizza, and ice cream, all accompanied by live music that created a vibrant atmosphere. The event was all about celebrating the people who make Ards Business Hub such a dynamic and supportive business community.

We are proud to provide a space where entrepreneurs feel supported and connected, and it is wonderful to see so many people come together to enjoy an evening of networking.

We look forward to continuing to support our tenants and to celebrating more milestones together in the months ahead.
