A CULLINGWORTH businessman has invested in a regional digital marketing agency.

Andrew Vaux, director of ARVA PR & Events, has become a franchisee with Wakefield-based Go Media.

"I've been considering the way forward for many months – looking for new business opportunities," said Mr Vaux.

"Go Media is a natural extension to my existing public relations company and I'm extremely excited about the opportunities ahead.

"I'm looking forward to developing my network across the Aire Valley and building new client relationships."

The move means the ex-journalist has now added website design and development, graphic design and print and social media management to his portfolio.

Go Media managing director, Paul Norton, said: "With his first-class communication skills, Andrew is an ideal fit with our business.

"I'm delighted to welcome him on board and wish him every success."
