Photo Gallery: Northern Soul / Canal St Meet-up, DG X Per Tutti, Manchester

Posted by Helen Nugent | Nov 27, 2017 | Uncategorized

Last Thursday, Northern Soul and Canal St welcomed our friends together to chat, mingle, drink and eat at DG X Per Tutti (the wonderful new winter pop-up from the team at Oxford Road’s Don Giovanni).

Not only was this event a brilliant way to network and get to know each other while eating lovely food, but we carried out this year’s Christmas Charity Appeal where we raised money for the wonderful Survivors Manchester. Thank you to all those who attended – and for digging deep to support such a worthwhile cause.
