Brighouse digital marketing director Scott Brant on how he powers down at the weekend
-
Having grown up in Houses Hill, a small village on the outskirts of Huddersfield, I now love living in Mirfield and am proud to call it my home.
It’s a small town, and there’s a great village community feel to it. On the high street, there’s a nice blend of independent and unique businesses, as well as some great new bars like Artisan and The Office that my wife and I visit on a weekend (should we be lucky enough to get the offer of a babysitter for our two-year-old daughter!).
