New manager appointments mark two years of rapid growth for Sussex business network.
A Sussex company that supports local business women celebrates another milestone, with the appointment of two managers for its newest branches in Lewes and Crawley.
From mid-April Jane Hames, Founder and Director of Glide Training in Shoreham, takes on the role of Lewes Manager and Judith Rayner, Founder of Powerful You in East Grinstead will take charge of Crawley for the Sussex-based Mumpreneurs Networking Club.
MNC, which helps mothers to build their businesses by getting advice and client leads from other mums, has expanded from three to eleven locations since it was launched in Brighton and Worthing two years ago. Both Lewes and Crawley have been running as pilot groups for the last few months and the appointment of permanent Managers is proof of their success.
Jane Hames says: ‘When I became a member of The MNC I was looking for a relaxed, friendly, encouraging and supportive business networking group. I didn’t expect to find something that ticked all those boxes but with The MNC I actually found all these things and much more. Now I am a manager I hope to bring the benefits of the network to mumpreneurs across the county and hope to see new faces at our next meeting on Tuesday 22nd May – at our new venue The Volunteer Pub in the heart of Lewes!’
Sara Guiel, one of the co-founders of MNC, based near Worthing says: ‘We’re really pleased to have Jane and Judith on our management team. In these tough economic times, it’s more important than ever to network and our growth is proof that you can build valuable and lasting business relationships over a quick cup of coffee! Our members can network at any of our groups in Sussex – so members in West Sussex regularly ‘cross the border’ to come to East – and vice versa.’’
