BIRTHDAY !

Aycliffe Business magazine marked its 10th anniversary with a highprofile event at Redworth Hall in December .

Around 80 business leaders gathered for the breakfast event as they heard from an engaging panel who all spoke passionately about Aycliffe Business Park and their organisations .
The event was hosted by Peter Barron MBE , former editor of the Northern Echo and a feature writer for Aycliffe Business .
He interviewed the magazine ’ s founder Martin Walker before the panel members took to the stage .
The panel included 3M plant manager Paul Hind and Gestamp plant director Jonathan Phillips – who together represent about 25 % of the business park ’ s total employment .
They were joined by Pamela Petty , the former managing director of Ebac , now consultant and Aycliffe Business Park
