May Update

The Manchester Young Solicitors Group had their most successful event to date last month with 100 tickets selling out in a record 30 minutes! The event was held in conjunction with the Manchester Young Professional Network (MYPN) at the exclusive Hotel Gotham.   Upon arrival attendees were presented with an Easter themed coloured named badge.  The colour would depend if you were a MYSG member or a MYPN member.  You then had to find your match from the opposite group to win a free glass of Prosecco.  This was a great way for our members to meet new people from other groups and truly embrace the spirit of what networking events should be about. Thank you to our sponsors, Interlink Recruitment, Yorkshire Bank and Shoosmiths who also had a fantastic time at the event.

As ever, to balance out the alcohol and frivolity, the MYSG are committed to hosting their health and wellbeing events and Lida Khanverdi, our wellbeing representative on the MYSG committee held a successful event in April at Lululemon with the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors.  Here our members were treated to complimentary yoga classes and lessons on how to cope with the stress of everyday life.

May is also setting up to be an exciting month for the MYSG with two fantastic networking opportunities.  The first event is on the 18^th May at Kiehl’s on King Street.  We will be joined by our good friends, the Manchester  Young Chartered Accountants Group (MYCAG) and attendees will be treated to complimentary treatments, a fashion show and goodies from Liquorice and Hey Little Cupcake.  All the proceeds raised will be donated to our charity, Forever Manchester. Please visit the events section of our website to purchase tickets.

The second networking event will be joint with the Manchester Trainee Solicitors Group and the Manchester Barristers Chambers.  This will be a quiz in the Living Room, Deansgate, on the 26^th May.  Thank you in advance to our lovely sponsors for this event, Deans Court Chambers and Anakin Seal.

If you are interested or know anyone at your firm who is looking to develop their network and business development skills please sign up to our mailing list at  https://www.mysg.co.uk and follow us on LinkedIn and Facebook. Members are encouraged to check the website regularly for news and updates as we are receiving an unprecedented amount of interest in each of our events and attendance is on a first come first served basis.
