The GROW Christmas Social
The GROW Christmas Social: Celebrating an Incredible Year
Our GROW Christmas Social was the perfect way to wrap up an excellent year for the network.
Held at Ormskirk Food & Drink Market, the afternoon was all about relaxing, celebrating, and enjoying each other’s company away from the usual networking format. Christmas jumpers made an appearance, drinks were flowing, and the atmosphere was exactly what a festive GROW event should be.
Celebrating Our Community
One of the highlights of the afternoon was recognising the people who make GROW what it is. We were proud to announce our 2025 award winners:
- GROW Member of the Year – Greg Petrie (NIP)
- Community Member of the Year – Beverly Roberts (About the Town)
- Members’ Member Award – Ryan Fairfield (Lift Off IT)
Each award reflected not just business success, but consistency, support, and contribution to the wider GROW community — values that sit at the heart of the network.
A Brilliant End to the Year
The Christmas Social wasn’t about pitches or presentations — it was about people. It was about celebrating friendships formed, businesses supported, and a community that continues to grow stronger every year.
A fantastic way to close out the year and set the tone for an even bigger 2026.
