What Our Members Say
“As a sole trader, the Herefordshire & Worcestershire Chamber of Commerce has been invaluable. From great networking events and friendly, helpful staff to support from experts when I need it, the Chamber has been a genuine help to my business.”
“After taking the plunge to become self-employed, I was a little overwhelmed by the various offerings of help and support available to me. However becoming a Member of the Herefordshire & Worcestershire Chamber of Commerce was undoubtedly one of the best moves I have made.
In the first few months of Membership I attended multiple networking events, benefited from online training sessions and had access to tonnes of advice for small business owners, just like me. The communications I receive make me feel like a valued Member, despite my small company size, and by being able to contribute to the Quarterly Economic Surveys, I know I’m helping to shape economic change.”
