Join us and build the local contacts you need to help you grow your business.
NETWORKING WITH US
Our FREE online networking group is where connections are made on a daily basis. The group is designed to give ample advertising opportunities for all members. No matter what day of the week it is, there are always members to call upon for advice, guidance and reassurance.
We now hold 7 network meetings each month to help build on the connections made between members online. Our network meetings are free for all Women Who, Worcestershire members, and always will be, because we know how difficult running a business can be, especially in the first few years, and want to ensure our supportive network is accessible to as many women in Worcestershire as possible, no matter what types of businesses they have. Non-members can join our networking meetings for a nominal fee.
Women Who, Worcestershire is all about supporting the women behind the businesses. We encourage positivity and empowerment. We all have something unique to offer and believe that working together and supporting one another will bring even more success. Join us today.
