Fleet in person business networking 11th March 2026

Welcome to our Fleet business networking in person group. Non-judgmental peer to peer support and learning for you and your business.

Connect with other business owners in Fleet and surrounding areas

If you do business in the Fleet area of Hampshire we’d love to meet you. Your host is the fabulous Mandy Dineley. Mandy has the loveliest way of making everyone feel special and welcome.

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 Fleet agenda

Our agenda is a mix of informal networking, a speaker and a little learning. This month our speaker is tbc

Informal networking with light refreshments

• Take your seats for the structured part of the meeting
• Introductions to all present
• Speaker, this month… Nick Keith, author, editor and publisher
• Discussion, hot seat or business activity
• Wrap up

Introduction round

We don’t do the 60 second pitch favoured by many networking communities. Instead, we have a different theme each month to keep our introductions fresh and to help us to get to know you better.

In March…What’s one thing we don’t know about you or your business? This article will give you some ideas.

All welcome.

We’re a welcoming bunch, and our meetings are typically 10-16 people so even if you are a novice networker they’re not too intimidating.

If you are nervous or have any specific needs, please email glenda@fabulousnetworking.co.uk with your phone number and we’ll work out how best to support you.

There will be a £15 (£12 for members) attendance fee for this event to cover room hire and refreshments. Payment may be made on arrival. These are a tax deductible marketing expense.

Your host

Your host is Mandy Dineley of My Beautiful Pen. Mandy specialises in beautiful words for special occasions. Whether you want help to write a speech or some framed words to give as a gift Mandy can help. Her offers include some magical letters from Father Christmas and some invitations to Lapland.

Mandy is also a talented, professional singer whose talents are much in demand, often with her bass playing husband Pete.

Your speaker

Nick Keith is another wordsmith. He’s spent much of his life in journalism and marketing. His first book was ‘Feel it like a man’. Now he’s writing crime thrillers and moving into publishing nano books.

We’re always delighted to see Nick and his lovely dog, Mouse.

Your venue

We’ll be meeting in the Spice Merchant in Crookham Village. The pub has a car park shared with the café next door.

Service is friendly and efficient, and if you want to stay on for food there are great options specialising in Thai cuisine.
