The Power of Dogs – Cheshire

Four fantastic speakers, all sharing one great passion

Join us on Thursday September 26th for a unique evening event taking place at beautiful Adlington Hall in Cheshire. Four inspiring and engaging speakers will share with us their stories about the power of dogs and all that they bring to us as humans.

Our speakers will each share their experiences about the impact that dogs have made to their own lives, both personally and professionally. Hear why we have developed such strong bonds with dogs over the centuries and why, in an increasingly digital world, dogs continue to play such an important role in our lives. Find out why so many writers include dogs as characters in their books and hear how an award-winning photographer captures stunning images of people and their dogs.

This evening promises to be entertaining, inspiring and thought-provoking.
