We are delighted to welcome on board Azalea Wealth Management to our Business Networking Club, Monkey Business.

The partnership highlights the Hartlepool-based firm’s commitment to play a part in the local community after its launch earlier this season.

Located at the Innovation Centre in the heart of the Tees Valley, Azalea provides tailored financial planning and advice to private individuals and corporate clients across a wide range of sectors.

Managing Director Harrison Smith is a former Hartlepool United academy player, while Operations Director Andrew Bowden is a familiar face on the Mill House terrace, following the team home and away.

Harrison said, “The affinity we have for this town and the connection with the club is undeniable. I’ve attended games since my boyhood days, and as a board member of the Hartlepool Business Forum, local connections are a core part of my ethos.

“I am looking forward to spending time with like-minded businesses through the Monkey Business club.

“We had agreed to join before Christmas, and since then, the news of Landon Smith’s takeover has been announced. These are exciting times for the town, and it would be fantastic to see the club continue to develop both on and off the pitch.”

Bowden said, “Harrison and I are lifelong supporters, and we felt this package was the perfect opportunity to get involved with the club directly.

“As a new company making an impact in the town and surrounding areas, we hope this is the start of a long and lucrative relationship with the club and the other supporting businesses. The news of the takeover has only made the decision to join Monkey Business even more exciting.”
