County Business Clubs in collaboration with Freedom Works

On Thursday 24th March, County Business Clubs in collaboration with Freedom Works kicked off their brand-new monthly member meet up.

Two great communities came together and welcomed over 50 members to the fantastic Astral towers, the newest freedom works space in their portfolio of 8 great work hubs across the South.

With County Business Clubs sharing the same values and ethos as Freedom Works it would make for the perfect partnership. The night was a relaxed environment to simply connect and build relationships, no hard selling and no pitching.

These monthly meet ups are designed to help people extend and grow their network so we will be hosting a member meet up on the last Thursday of every month, rotating between Astral Towers, Hove and Worthing.

Ahead of these events, all attendees will receive a list and the County Business Clubs’ team will be on hand to introduce you to anyone you would like to meet over a glass of wine and some light nibbles. 

Here’s what a few of our members had to say:

Karl Elwood – Elwood Wines

“With two great organisations collaboration.

“Great collaborations offer the best of both worlds and when done well, it’s great to have an opportunity to be part of it. That was the case at the launch night of the Freedom Works Collaboration with County Business Clubs at the amazing Astral Towers in Crawley last month. There was an ideal number of attendees drawn from both organisations, with an excellent buffet and even wine to enjoy, creating a very relaxed atmosphere and a great chance to make new connections from outside my usual networking circuit. Next stop is at Freedom Works Hove at the end of March and I would strongly recommend to anyone serious about expanding their network to attend.”

Janella Merritt – Head of Fundraising at Rockinghorse, children’s charity

“It was great to link in with a range of businesses in the Crawley area last week. Crawley is a fairly new part of Sussex for us and it was lovely to be able share our work with a new audience. We are really looking forward to the next County Business Club event!”

Claire Harding – Senior Protection Specialist at Aspen Financial Services Limited

“I’ve tried a lot of networking events, but was really impressed with County Business Clubs’ event with Freedom Works.. It was a relaxed but professional atmosphere with a great mix of people and a perfect opportunity to chat openly about our businesses. Structured networking has its place but a relaxed conversation over a glass of wine really works. Combine that with an impressive venue, clear lanyards and a friendly welcome and County Business Clubs have got the balance spot on!!!”
