Welcome to Fabulous Networking Shrivenham. Supportive business networking for small business owners in the Swindon and South Oxfordshire area.

Speaker: This month Jill will be leading a workshop on  “How can disabled people help your business grow?”. This will be a mixture of talk, discussion and maybe even a quiz.

What to expect

What happens at a Fabulous Networking Shrivenham meeting?

• A warm welcome and informal chat
• Introductions rather than sales pitches. Each month we use a different theme to help everyone understand a little more about who you are and what you do. This month… What’s your entry point offer? The lowest risk purchase someone can make to try you out. This article explains more.
• A speaker or business activity
• Opportunities to share ideas and support one another

Your speaker

Rather than a speaker this month Jill will be leading a workshop on “How can disabled people help your business grow?” looking at how we interact with disabled people in business whether that is as customers, suppliers or employees.

Who attends Fabulous Networking Shrivenham?

Meetings usually include 6-8 people, with a mix of regular members and visitors. We are actively trying to grow this group and would love to welcome you.

Attendees include HR consultants, health and wellbeing professionals, marketing and travel consultants and other small business owners.

Everyone is welcome. We don’t have attendance rules or professional lockouts, and members belong to the wider Fabulous Networking community rather than a single group.

Thinking of coming along for the first time?

Visitors are always welcome at Fabulous Networking events, and you’re welcome to attend up to three meetings before deciding whether to join the community.

We regularly get visitors who are new to networking. We promise you a safe, supportive space and warm welcome.

Book your place and come and see whether Fabulous Networking feels like the right community for you.

As someone who works closely with business owners on tricky people issues every day, it was refreshing to be in a room focused on practical growth rather than surface-level networking. Samantha Newton
