Domino’s in the Boulevard showed its support for the business by cooking up a bee-shaped pizza to donate to the team.

The next set of workshops is due to take place on November 14 at The Winter Gardens, offering advice on getting the most from Twitter, Facebook and other social services.

The day will start with an introduction to social media in the morning, followed by an intermediate workshop.

The event and future sessions are only open to North Somerset businesses. Spokesman Laura Bailey said: “We understand the positive effect that social media can have on a business when used to its full potential.”
