END OF THE ROAD FOR EVENTS COMPANY THAT OPERATED OUT OF THE KNOLL?

                                              

The Knoll - prestigious HQ

THE curtain appears to have  fallen on a short-lived events company based in Cleethorpes.

Go-getters Tanya Thomson (50) and Gemma Leaning (43) set up G& T Events (North East Lincs Ltd) in summer two years ago.

With The Knoll in Cleethorpes as its HQ, the business was registered with Companies House in August 2018.

However, despite marketing qualifications, enthusiasm and perhaps the most prestigious address in  Cleethorpes, the duo probably lacked the capital, the contacts and the experience to stage any money-spinning events sufficient to  generate revenues from ticket-sales and/or sponsorship.

A Meet-Santa-in-His-Grotto  event was tolerably successful, but  a proposed Sunday artisans' market never got off the ground.

In March this year, the two directors applied for the company to be struck off the Companies House register.

Pending the strike-off, the duo have other interests to pursue - for instance, Tanya helps husband Barry to run The Farmhouse pub in New Waltham while Gemma is a fundraising co-ordinator for the Royal British Legion.
