Join in your local Growth Community group and benefit from great conversations, support, and a genuine feeling of community.
You’ll love our enjoyable, yet productive business networking format, so come along and experience a friendly meeting today.
Our members are putting ‘community’ back into business networking.
Perhaps you’ve tried networking before and not had much success? Or maybe you are hesitant to come to your first meeting?
We guarantee, that from your first visit, you will see the benefits of real community networking – not just new faces but genuine follow-ups and meaningful connections who want to help you grow your business.
Our meeting format is simple; Enjoy getting to know some new people, learn from other businesses and arrange some proactive follow up conversations.
“The Growth Community has given me access to a wide variety of different people, across a fairly wide geographical area, and they’ve supported me through each stage of growth.”
“The Growth Community is networking done right - it has purpose and direction, but without feeling too formal or regimented. I've made some great relationships - and I'd like to think friends, too - from being part of it.”
"I have not found a more supportive, collaborative and friendly group anywhere else - and I have done a lot of networking!"
"I can honestly say, being part of The Growth Community has helped my business massively. We have made useful business contacts, generated work and found a wonderful community of like minded people who all want to help one another achieve success."
The group are really welcoming and supportive, the atmosphere is relaxed and the meetings are always fun! I've found some really powerful networking connections through The Growth Community! I would 100% recommend this style of networking for anyone who is nervous to network - it's brilliant!
"If you're planning on visiting as a guest, I promise you will feel so supported and welcome. You can just be yourself, relax and enjoy being part of our meeting."
"The Member Only Meetings add so much value and are worth the membership fee on their own."
"Since joining, I have seen an increase in leads and have been able to build valuable target networks. The connections I've made here, have not only brought in new clients, but also offered ongoing support and collaboration opportunities."
The Growth Community has active fortnightly meetings across the UK, mostly in person and a few online ones too. There are plenty of groups to choose from and you can visit up to SIX times per calendar year as our guest.
The best results from business networking come when you get properly involved and start working together with other growth minded people.
Joining our community is easy and flexible. Simply fill in the contact form and we’ll be in touch right away with your joining options. There is no contract to tie you in. You simply pay an affordable monthly membership and you’re all set.

Our meetings are relaxed, friendly and fun – but they have purpose. We squeeze the most out of every session to ensure you connect with some people, learn something and, most importantly, come away with some onward conversations booked in. This is business networking at its finest!
Guests are always telling us how much they enjoy our meeting agenda.
Grab yourself a drink, and introduce yourself. If you're online, you will be put into a breakout room with a couple of other people. In person, say 'hi' to the people around you. No need to feel shy-everyone is really friendly.
Everyone takes turns to do a 1 minute pitch. This is your opportunity to introduce yourself and tell everyone how you help your customers. Don't forget to make a note of who you fancy a chat with.
A member goes into more detail about their business, how they help their customers and often share tips from their industry that you can apply to your own business.
This is where we say who we want to follow up with. We also take time to say thank you and give testimonials to people who have helped us. And share any business passed.
One of our members closes the meeting with a 3-5 minute presentation about something you can take away and apply to your business (or life in general!)
Stay around and chat, or book in your follow up meetings. Some of members also often grab some lunch or set up 121s for after the meeting.
