The Her Business network is a forum where women in business can come along to a monthly network meeting, to meet like-minded women wanting to achieve similar goals, build professional or social connections, in a positive environment.
We run one event a month – normally the 3rd Wednesday 5.30pm – 7.30pm. Throughout the year, we will run special events and the, One day "Mini Bloom' conference - connecting local women with some serious networking and great speakers, training courses etc.
