The Northern Affinity

The Northern Affinity is a partnership of SMEs and businesses in the North of England who collaborate with shared values and beliefs. The world is your oyster. Everyone in The Northern Affinity dreams big and achieves bigger. We know that variety is the spice of life and we want to encourage that variety; not everyone is the same and we don't expect their aspirations to be, either. When you’re part of The Northern Affinity, you’re part of our community. You’re in the squad, you’ve found your tribe; you’re cheering each other on, lifting each other up and driving each other forward. You’ll feel the support from others and you’ll be there to give support, too; because, hey, we’re all part of this for the same reason – to be better. To find new ways of working, to come up with amazing ideas, to have a safe space to ask for opinions from people we trust and to create business and life we want. We believe that networking can produce fantastic results. However, we believe that meetings and events should be an added bonus, not a necessity. Using social media and other tools, we facilitate ongoing and organic collaboration and don’t force this through rigid meetings or structure.
