A couple opened their own bar that "fills a gap in the market" ten years after meeting at a bar they both worked at.
Gary and Lauren Forshaw have opened the doors on their adventure, Kas Social, in Ormskirk town centre, ten years on from meeting while both working in Shenanigans in Liverpool city centre. Gary, general manager at the time, set eyes on his future wife Lauren when she joined as bar manager.
The pair fell in love and shared a passion for one day opening their own venue. When they both found themselves redundant they were doing all they could to get by, with Gary even moving down to Essex to work in his friend's bar. But when they found out they had a baby on the way they decided a change was needed.
