CRICKETER Alec Stewart will visit North Yorkshire in his role as an ambassador for Yorkshire Bank.

The former England captain will meet an invited audience of local business people at Allerton Court Hotel, Northallerton, tomorrow in a visit organised by Yorkshire Bank’s North Yorkshire Business and Private Banking Centre, York.

Mr Stewart will discuss his career as a professional cricketer and conduct a questions and answers session.

Rick Warburton, head of Yorkshire Bank’s North Yorkshire Business and Private Banking Centre, said: “There are many similarities between captaining a successful sports side and running a successful business and we are sure that the audience will be very interested in what he has to say.”
