TELEVISION presenter Dan Walker will be guest speaker at this year's Bradford Chamber of Commerce dinner.

It will be held on Thursday, November 21, and is expected to be attended by key business and civic dignitaries from West Yorkshire and beyond.

Suzanne Watson, President of Bradford Chamber, said:“I’m really looking forward to my first dinner as President – it is a great privilege and honour.

"It’s a great opportunity to meet with some of our wonderful businesses, and it’s a great chance for them, too, to bring along clients and celebrate being in business.

"Despite the difficult and uncertain climate right now, we know that many organisations are still doing really well and so I hope that they will come along and be part of the Chamber family on the night.”

Speakers will be Suzanne herself and TV presenter Dan Walker.

Dan Walker succeeded Bill Turnbull at BBC Breakfast in 2016, before which he presented on Radio 5 Live.

He presents Saturday’s Football Focus, is a regular on Match of the Day and Final Score, and has covered the World Cup, European football championships, the Olympics and Commonwealth Games. Dan has also appeared on Songs of Praise, Countdown, Celebrity Mastermind and A Question Of Sport.

Suzanne is the founder and Managing Director of Approach PR, based in Ilkley.

The black tie event will be held at Bradford’s Midland Hotel from 6.45pm onwards, and tickets cost £96 (members) or £120 (non-members).
