Details

Running a business in Keswick or the surrounding area, and want to feel more connected to the local business community?

Perhaps you’re looking to raise your profile and be easier to find and trust, have access to advice and support when challenges crop up, or reduce the need to pay for things ad hoc that you might already be covering elsewhere.

Join us for a relaxed, informal drop-in session where local businesses can have a conversation with Cumbria Chamber of Commerce and get a clearer picture of how Chamber membership supports businesses day to day.

Many local businesses haven’t worked with the Chamber before, or assume it’s “not for them”. This session is simply a chance to understand what the Chamber actually does for businesses like yours, see how members use it to make connections, raise visibility and avoid costly mistakes, and explore whether being part of a local business network could be useful for you now or in the future.

Chamber membership is designed to be accessible and great value for businesses of all sizes, from sole traders to growing teams. Membership can often offset its own cost by supporting areas businesses are already spending money on, such as payment processing, legal, HR or staff wellbeing.

On the day, we’ll also be joined by Chamber service partners, who provide benefits included within membership:

Quest supports members with 24/7 HR, H&S, legal and tax/VAT advice, access to a document library of over 700 templates, and £1m legal expenses insurance included as part of membership.

myPOS offers Chamber members exclusive, market-leading payment rates, including debit card transaction fees from just 0.32%, instant settlement, and access to the latest handheld payment devices.

Chamber members also receive Healthy Extras from Westfield Health, providing wellbeing and everyday health benefits at no cost for businesses with 99 employees or fewer.

Membership is affordable and flexible, with the option to pay monthly at no extra cost, making it easier for businesses to access support without a large upfront commitment.

We work closely with the Cumbria Business Growth Hub and will have information available on wider support, funding and training opportunities for those who want to explore that further.

 Location: Building in the Convention Car Park off Coleridge Court.

Pop in for 10 minutes or stay longer — this session is designed to fit around your working day.
