Ealing in person business networking 6th March 2026

Welcome to our Ealing business networking in person group.

Grow your business networking connections in Ealing and beyond.

Running a business can be lonely. Who do you turn to for support? How do you meet potential collaborators or suppliers? Attending our Ealing business networking group will introduce you to people who care about you and your business. They may become customers or introducers. They will almost certainly become supporters and friends.

Fabulous Networking is a membership organisation, but visitors are always welcome. No profession or gender restrictions. We believe that there are opportunities to be gained by working with our competitors. Attend up to three of our events before deciding if you’d like to join.

Your attendance fee is £15 (£12 for members) to cover venue and light refreshments. This is a tax deductible business expense and receipts will be issued.

Support, learning and inspiration are three of our core values and will be woven through the meeting. We want you to leave feeling it was a morning well spent.

A typical Ealing agenda

Our agenda is structured but flexible to respond to the needs and size of the group on the day.

• Informal networking with light refreshments
• Take your seats for the structured part of the meeting
• Introductions to all present
• Speaker, this month… Zoe Angle
• Discussion, hot seat or business activity
• Wrap up

Introduction round

We vary our introductions each month to keep them fresh and interesting whilst building our understanding of your business.

In March… What’s one thing we don’t know about you or your business?

Your host

Our speaker.

Zoe Angle is a professional stained glass artist.

After a fine arts degree in Sheffield she ‘served her time’ with some of the leading stained glass studios in the UK before establishing her own business in 2009. She has worked on high profile projects such as the Baltic Exchange restoration and the memorial window to Winston Churchill in St. Martin’s Church, Bladon.

Much of her work is domestic and she works collaboratively with stained glass designers and door and window manufacturers as well as directly with clients. She undertakes restoration and repair as well as designing in contemporary and traditional styles. Her specialism is fine art painting on glass.

Our venue

We meet at Rayuela, a fine dining Spanish restaurant in the new Dickens Yard development in the heart of Ealing

There’s an underground car park accessible from Longfield Avenue (best joined from Gordon Rd. as there are turning restrictions with the Uxbridge Rd and the cameras take no prisoners!). There are other car parks on Springbridge Road

All bus routes along the A4020 are accessible. Ealing Broadway station is now fully accessible and serves National Rail, the Elizabeth Line and the Central and District Lines. It’s about a 5 minute walk.

Reasons for attending.

• Running a business can be lonely, it helps to have friends in business. We can become those friends.
• Every business needs to reach new customers, when we understand what you do and who you do it for, we can introduce you to potential customers.
• Support and learning are two benefits our members frequently praise our community for.
• Our meetings are relaxed but purposeful. No pressure to bring referrals and no attendance rules. We hope you’ll come because you enjoy it.

A fabulous bunch of lovely likeminded people focused on supporting local businesses. Farzana Parkar
