We had a wonderful evening at HMS Drake for the Plymouth Area Business Council (PABC) Summer Dinner in June 2023.

The event was co-hosted by Womble Bond Dickinson and Plymouth Citybus and saw everyone dressed to impress as we enjoyed a delicious three-course meal in the Wardroom at HMS Drake.
Our Guests of Honour were Dame Darcey Bussell DBE and Brigadier Mike Tanner OBE RM, Devonport Naval Base Commander, while entertainment included a Royal Marine Military Band, Sunset Ceremony and military display.
The PABC will be holding its 93th Quarterly Meeting on Wednesday 6 September. If you are a PABC member and would like to attend, please either register here or email helen.hart@devonchamber.co.uk
