Member of the Month

COMING SOON

We have created a new opportunity for members to put themselves and their business in the spotlight.

Each month we will pull a member's name 'out of the hat' and they will be featured as the MEMBER OF THE MONTH on the Handbags and Briefcases website.

Our PR committee team will be contacting someone very soon and we will announce the Member of the Month in our September newsletter.

Networking Champion

COMING SOON

We love to show our members how much we appreciate their support, that's why we have created the NETWORKING CHAMPION award.

The award will go to the member who has attended the most networking events and workshops throughout the year.

We will be announcing the first Networking Champion at The Big Sounding Board event in September.

An appeal for your help

Handbags & Briefcases is a not-for-profit organisation and relies on membership fees to keep going and all the committee members volunteer their time to run the networking group.

To ensure the groups survival for members and for future entrepreneur-esses, we need to grow our membership numbers and retain existing members and we need your help to achieve this.

How You Can Help
1. Spread the word. Tell all your business contacts. Invite them along to our events. Encourage them to join.
2. Renew your membership, even if you're too busy to attend any meetings, your kind sponsorship will benefit us all.

Your committee members: Chair - Jenny Matthews / Communication - Collette Taylor / PR - Val Dickinson & Jan Lord / Website & Admin - Amanda Manson / Finance - Sue Weighell / Membership - Joanne Hopkins & Bhupinder Kaur
