Features of Membership

The West Berkshire Business Club was formed in January 1992 and has a thriving membership from local businesses.
The Club is a forum that aims to help its members to further their business interests. It sees its niche as being with the small and start-up businesses with the West Berkshire area.
Meetings at local venues usually take place on the last Wednesday or Thursday of every month at 7.00pm. These are topical presentations of interest and relevance to local business men and women. They provide a chance to chat to guest speakers and fellow members.

The club website has a membership listing containing the names of fellow members and their business activity (www.wbbc.co.uk)
