We are a not-for-profit, relaxed and informal networking opportunity facilitated by number of local business owners who enjoy bringing people together and promoting the many positive aspects of local community. Enjoy a couple of hours of open networking together with the opportunity to have the floor for 60 seconds to promote your business, charity or event to the group. ‘Positive about our community’ We carefully choose our guest speakers to inform us about success stories, interesting projects and events that are happening on our doorstep.
