As part of the deal, two Howden staff will join James Hallam in its Harrogate office.  

James Hallam managing director Paul Anscombe said: “We are developing our healthcare sector business so this is a good strategic fit.”

James Hallam has also become a sponsor of the English Community Care Association (ECCA).
