ABOUT

 

Founded in 2009 by four local business women, Calverley Business Network is a group of local businesses from Calverley and the surrounding areas. Our aim is to help each other to do more business and do more business locally!  We provide a warm and open environment for business people to meet, share ideas, leads and ultimately do business together!

 

Our meetings are held on the first Wednesday of every month at the Thornhill Arms, 18 Towngate, Calverley between 7.30pm and 9pm. The emphasis is on a social event where members have the opportunity to meet and chat to each other.

​

Unlike other networks we have no formal requirements for members to bring any thing specific to the group, however we would ask that everyone embrace the spirit of the network and seek to share knowledge, ideas or leads where they can.

​

Calverley Business Network is an open group with no set membership criteria. It is quite possible that you will find a competitor business in the room. There is no policy to limit business types and we would ask members to embrace the open spirit of the network. If your competitor is here then all the more reason to come along too! You will each have equal opportunity to represent yourself and your business.
