New Phone Number
We now have a phone number again. If you don't have access to email then you can call us on the number provided on the Contact page.
Since the closure of the Malton Business Advice Centre we have been without a phone number. To keep costs down this number uses the 0844 local rate system but costs the Ryedale Business Network nothing to have in place.
Pay By Credit card
You can now pay for the next event using a credit card. Many people now find it more convenient to pay by credit card than cheque or cash. If you wish to sign up for the next event and are not currently a member of the Ryedale Business Network then you can use this facility to quickly pay in advance.
