Home & Gift To Go Ahead, Say Organisers

Following the news on Tuesday (March 31) that the government is turning the Harrogate Convention Centre (HCC) into a dedicated Nightingale Hospital to  treat coronavirus patients, Gifts & Home show director, Kelly Grant, confirmed that organisers Clarion Events had been informed by the HCC that currently, the temporary hospital set-up will not displace Home & Gift.

“We are in conversations with, and working with, all of our venues, stakeholders and the wider community on a number of scenarios that will allow us to continue to deliver a successful Home & Gift,” stated Kelly.

“As the organisers of Home & Gift, like you, we fully support the need to prioritise the greater good during this difficult time for those affected and for the nation as a whole.”
