Enjoying SEBCC Events
I enjoy attending the SEBCC events to connect with other like-minded business owners - often we are isolated in a Home office - it's a great opportunity to meet others, grow my connections & a good excuse to put on some make-up and get out of my active wear 🙂

Being a solo business owner can get pretty lonely, so the 'Coffee and Connects' sessions have been a great for me. The networking is always structured, which is great because it actually gets you talking to people instead of just standing in the corner like a wallflower.
I’m now on the committee as a volunteer, and I see how much work goes into making this a success for everyone. At the end of the day, businesses need other businesses. It’s been a great way to build real relationships and find local people I can actually turn to. Highly recommend joining if you're local and looking for a bit of community.
