Staffordshire Ambassador Event
September 17, 2026
Canalside Farm Shop & Cafe
9:30am - 12:00pm
The Staffordshire Ambassador Network brings organisations and individuals together across the county to put Staffordshire on the map. We have an amazing story to tell, and such a lot to be proud of, but we all need to talk the place up, celebrate our successes; together we need to act as ambassadors for Staffordshire and get our story out there.
We’re delighted to announce the next Staffordshire Ambassador Event, taking place at Canalside Farm, Shop & Café.
This September, we’re joining forces with the newly launched Made in Staffordshire to celebrate the businesses, makers and manufacturers that help make Staffordshire such a great place.
Made in Staffordshire is a new, free membership scheme dedicated to the people who design, create and produce right here in the county. From independent artisans and local food heroes to world-leading industrial manufacturers, we’re here to champion the talent that puts us on the map.
Join us to hear inspiring stories from Staffordshire businesses and discover the benefits of becoming a Made in Staffordshire member.
Keynote speaker: Sophie Newlands, Shag Interior and 2026 runner-up on BBC One’s Interior Design Masters
