Wednesday Business Club

Wednesday Business Club

The Wednesday Business Club (WBC) is a not-for-profit business networking group that meets every week over breakfast to exchange qualified business referrals. Weekly attendance and the bringing of referrals or visitors are not a formal requirement, both being seen as just good business sense.

The Club provides a supportive environment in which local businesses share local initiatives, learn valuable new business skills and develop the strong trust and relationships necessary for generating genuine business referrals.

On the 4th Wednesday of each month we hold an ‘Open Meeting’ that all are welcome to attend and this will usually have an external speaker.

Twice each year we have a ‘Progress Meeting’ at which the members discuss and agree the focus and priorities for the coming six months.

Our members are encouraged to attend at least 50% of meetings over a three month rolling period and to bring ‘real’ referrals to share and support each other, also to hold one-to-one meetings and conversations outside of the group meetings.
