Tracy, who runs a networking group in Rochdale, has run networking groups for more than 20 years, but when the Business Over Breakfast company announced it was closing, she had to devise a strategy quickly and prepare to launch something new.

At the inaugural Rossendale Means Business Expo, held in June 2024 at The Whitaker Art Gallery and Museum, BoB clubs closed and Tracy used the expo to launch her new company.
