One of Dorset’s newest PR and social media agencies – launched earlier this year in lockdown – finally celebrated its arrival with a real-life party.

Warrior Agency hosted the event at The Green House Hotel in Bournemouth with clients and friends finally able to banish Zoom and meet in person.

Describing itself as an ethical agency, Warrior said the party was 2021’s first green networking event with green businesses attending from across the conurbation.

It was held on the hotel’s Eco Garden Terrace, the perfect setting according to Lizzie McManus, Founder of Warrior.

She said: “What better way to celebrate the launching of Warrior and BCP’s other fabulous green businesses than a party in the UK’s number one eco-boutique hotel.

“The garden is beautiful, surrounded by native plants and bug hotels.

“There couldn’t have been a better place to have our long overdue party.”

More than 50 people attended over the course of the afternoon including a number of Warrior’s clients and business associates.

Stir Events sponsored the music and provided the perfect ambience with Sara Harris, pictured left, singing Motown and jazz until sunset.

Guests were also treated to canapes from the Arbor as well as cocktails including Kir Royales from Bournemouth’s own gin liqueur makers, Smith & Weston.

Lizzie added: “It was such a lovely afternoon, I really wanted to say thank you to all the people that have supported me and mentored me over the last few months.

“I couldn’t be prouder of how far Warrior has come in such a short time and that’s thanks to our wonderfully supportive business community in BCP.

“I feel very fortunate.”
