LAST FRIDAY CLUB

FREE Network Event

WHAT IS IT?

A FREE business networking meetup on the last Friday of each month at independent venues within the city of Chichester, or sometimes a walk around the City walls.

It was started in 2016 by, Debbie Ford owner of The Chichester Social, and Emily Perry, a local HR Consultant and founder of The People Consultancy. Since this time, it has grown to a membership of over 300.

WHO IS IT AIMED AT?

Chichester-based:

• Freelancers – service providers, digital, creatives, writers, ecommerce, tech etc

• Business owners or solo entrepreneurs – pop-up shops, retailers here in town and surrounding areas, or individuals running their businesses from home

HOW DOES IT WORK?

We aim to offer something a little more informal than perhaps other local business networks. And our members come away from each meetup with renewed vigour and purpose for their business by benefiting from the experience of others. A real sense of community and connection.

Over the past (almost) 6 years we've seen so many of our members collaborate, there's even been some unusual pairings with a singing tutor and a brand strategist – it just works!

Attendees are from varying business backgrounds, so you'll be sure to fit in or find someone/something of interest. Our members are often our speakers too, so they get a chance to share their business insight and knowledge.
