A networking group is supporting local businesses with 10 membership grants worth \u00a3894 each available across the Cheshire region.<\/p>\n

The membership grants (one per local group) are available to new members who have started a business in 2020 and gives them a one-year BNI membership free of charge.<\/p>\n

The worldwide networking organisation has 10 groups in the local area in Crewe and Nantwich as well as in Mere, Knutsford, Holmes Chapel, Warrington, Grappenhall, Wilmslow, Macclesfield and Vale Royal.<\/p>\n

BNI is a business networking organisation which provides a structured, supportive business development environment.<\/p>\n

Members are taught how to attract and win more new business through word of mouth referrals from fellow group members.<\/p>\n

And it works – members in the local Cheshire East region have supported each other and passed over \u00a37,363,641 worth of business since January.<\/p>\n

Executive director of BNI Cheshire East Dave Skeels said: “I’m absolutely thrilled to be doing my bit to support local business people at what is a difficult time for many.<\/p>\n

“2020 has been a challenging year and will continue to be so, particularly in certain sectors.<\/p>\n

“We are seeing many people who have been made redundant, or whose businesses are no longer viable, start a new business and it is these people we are looking to support.<\/p>\n

“Membership is a great way for them to kick-start their entrepreneurial journey.”<\/p>\n

BNI is a membership organisation.<\/p>\n

One grant will be awarded in each of the 10 local chapters with membership committees having the final say on who the grant will be awarded to.<\/p>\n

This will follow an application process.<\/p>\n

Dave added: “This is an amazing opportunity. BNI groups meet weekly and provide a hugely supportive network for any business.<\/p>\n

“I would urge anyone who has set up a business this year to get in touch with their local chapter.”<\/p>\n
