I’ve had lots going on this week, catching up with mountains of paperwork; darn having years of experience as a PA!
Meeting new people, seeing new companies, having Cielo Coffee, talking about planning on Main Street, adding more people to the Community Choir and adding new people onto the website……..;
Which leads me to introduce to you Graham Reynard Photography who has joined The Main Deal this week under the, ‘Unique Businesses on our Doorstep’ category. Please take a look at his website and snapshop of his portfolio on our pages

Graham (Mr Fox) looks like a great photographer who seems extremely passionate about his work, professional with a great added sense of fun.

Meeting The Holiday Inn – Cross Marketing
I had a fabulous meeting yesterday with The Holiday Inn, I want to work more closely with the larger companies in Garforth, try to encourage these companies to also, like you, the community, look closer to home first; and it also means they could be giving their guests more. By working with me closely, I would like The Holiday Inn to try, where possible to use Garforth local produce, for example, Dumouchel Bread, Cielo Coffee etc
To give their customers more of a service whilst staying at their hotel, It would be great if in every room they had information on how to connect to the Garforth Live Page and see what’s going on near the hotel they are staying, obviously the hotel offer a wonderful restaurant and bar (soon to be refurbished) gym and pool facilities, but what if a guests wanted a hairdresser, a barber a tan shop, a local shop…. etc, etc Now they would be able to see them.
These cards you many have spotted now and again in and around Garforth – if you ever see one, send me your picture to say you have spotted one to my twitter account @garforthtoday
