DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Christmas, for many, is often=0D=0A=
a time of reflection, and a Christmas Carol is a tale of redemption and=0D=0A=
forgiveness. But do we forgive ourselves of our mistakes in business? Can we=0D=0A=
learn from our errors and do we have the courage to move forward?=0D=0A=
Our lead in our First Friday=0D=0A=
Christmas story is Jacob Hill, a young and eager entrepreneur with an=0D=0A=
impressive history of business success behind him, and a world of opportunity=0D=0A=
in front.=0D=0A=
The story will be set at the=0D=0A=
beautiful and newly refurbished space at Farmer Copley’s, a perfect and cozy=0D=0A=
setting for this tale of success, failure and redemption.=0D=0A=
Jacob devised his most=0D=0A=
lucrative venture, The Lazy Camper, a trailblazing concept aimed at festival=0D=0A=
fans. He entered his business in to a host of national competitions, securing=0D=0A=
investment from Richard Branson through his Virgin Media Pioneers medium.  Such was Jacob’s success, that he found the=0D=0A=
company sponsoring leading UK music and sporting festivals.  =0D=0A=
When he faced seismic setbacks,=0D=0A=
from business failures to a 28-month prison sentence after making bad business=0D=0A=
and personal decisions, Jacob pledged to push through and re-build=0D=0A=
Despite all the unfortunate=0D=0A=
circumstances that he’s faced, Jacob’s most admirable trait is his=0D=0A=
determination to push through and stay inspired, and that ultimately success=0D=0A=
comes with passion, instinct and sincerity.=0D=0A=
You’ll also hear about the=0D=0A=
wonderful home grown Farmer Copley’s=0D=0A=
and find out how this innovative family business has grown massively since its=0D=0A=
early beginnings as a converted barn café. Expanding in 2006 and then again=0D=0A=
more recently in 2009 to its present size, boasting 3,100 square feet of retail=0D=0A=
space and encompassing a 106 seated MOO=0D=0A=
Café.=0D=0A=
Chaired by Adrian Spawforth, Wakefield Bondholders Chair, the=0D=0A=
event will also feature excellent networking opportunities, and a breakfast of tasty fresh farm=0D=0A=
produce from Farmer Copley’s! =0D=0A=
Although not essential, we highly=0D=0A=
recommend you come along in your favourite festive jumper (Or ties,=0D=0A=
earrings…whatever you enjoy!)=0D=0A=
