Extremely informative and useful

I have now attended a couple of workshops through BWi and both were extremely informative and useful and the fact that you receive a recording and slides afterwards means you can look back over the content and refresh your knowledge.

I can't recommend them highly enough

What I love about BWi is that the workshops provided are perfectly tailored to new start-ups who are trying to find their way in the self-employed world. They are so affordable and practical and if you can't join live you can watch the recording. I can't recommend them highly enough.

I just love the community Business Women in has created. I have attended a LOT of the in-person meetups, as well online workshops they provide. I always take away something from each I attend and come away with loads more ideas I can implement into my business due to the wealth of knowledge held by all members. Thank you!!! I am so glad I was encouraged to join early on in my sole trader journey! I recommend any woman in business (employed or running their own) to sign up to their monthly membership. It is a no brainer for the value that you receive!

I’ve been a member of BWI for about a year now and have loved being part of the community. The in-person meet-ups and Big Events are a highlight. The women are incredibly friendly and supportive and it’s been a great way to build leads for my marketing business. Beyond networking, the workshops are fantastic value and have helped me grow my skills. One standout was Speak Like a Pro with voice and communications coach Helen Langford: a fun, engaging 2.5-hour session packed with practical tips. It left me feeling empowered about public speaking, which I’ve always found intimidating. Huge thanks to the BWI community for the warmth, support and knowledge you’ve shared with me this year. I’m excited to keep learning with you all.

I joined my first BWI networking meeting in January with a little trepidation as I have done plenty of networking in the past and not all of the organisations are a fit for me. I can honestly say that BWI is a genuinely warm, supportive safe space. It is amazing value financially but the value of getting together with like-minded women in business who have got your back, where there is no judgement, where people genuinely want to help, where you can be vulnerable, where you can make friends and receive advice is invaluable. I would say the only downside is for your pockets, as you learn about so many amazing businesses that you want to spend money with!!

I've been hovering on the edge on BWI for a while now, enjoying their content but nervous to throw myself in the ring. Yesterday I bit the bullet and joined one of their online meet-ups - it was nothing like I expected and it was just what I needed to give me a bit of a kick start! The group was diverse and the host (Michelle herself) was amazing, ensuring we all had some time to share our story and ask any questions of other participants. If anyone asked me to describe BWI, I'd say it's networking but not as we know it - it feels like a family and I'm really pleased I took the plunge.

I’m a shy person, and networking is usually very difficult for me — but to my great surprise, this experience was completely different! I felt like I was catching up with old friends: chatting, sharing, and supporting each other for two hours. Such an amazing experience — I absolutely loved it! Huge thanks to Michelle for making it so easy to present my work and connect with other wonderful ladies. Definitely a 5-star event!"

Joining BWi was the smartest move I made for my business, and my sanity. I launched my HR consultancy with big ideas, a bulletproof knowledge of employee relations, and the enthusiasm of a woman fuelled by caffeine and sheer grit. What I didn’t have? A community. A network. A space where I could be the businesswoman, the dog mum, the true crime podcast junkie, and the one navigating the glorious chaos of self-employment. Then I stumbled across Business Women In, and honestly, it felt like I’d found the secret door to Narnia, only instead of fauns and Turkish Delight, it was full of phenomenal women who just get it. And not in a surface-level “networking brunch” sort of way, this is real connection, with real people who’ve got your back and will also call you out (kindly) when you need a nudge forward. The workshops? Think power-packed, straight-talking sessions on everything from AI hacks to marketing mindset. Not one ounce of fluff, just useful, practical advice from women who've walked the walk. And if you miss one? No panic, there’s a library of replays, which I dip into with a brew and a notepad like it's Netflix for business growth. And the meet-ups! Whether they’re online or in a cosy local venue, they’re warm, welcoming, and real. No stiff intros, no pitching unless you want to, just honest chats, shared wisdom, a few belly laughs, and more than a couple of “Oh my god, ME TOO!” moments. Here’s the truth: being a woman in business can be lonely. Especially when you’re spinning plates, wondering if you’re mad to leave the 9–5, and desperately trying to do All The Things (usually while stepping over a dog toy and muting a barking fit mid-Zoom). BWi reminded me I don’t have to do it alone. In fact, I shouldn’t. I’ve found support, yes, but also accountability, visibility, referrals, and friendships I genuinely treasure. I’ve laughed, learned, and landed new opportunities that wouldn’t have come my way otherwise. So if you’re on the fence, get off it. Whether you’re just starting out or scaling up, this community will meet you where you are, celebrate where you’re going, and hand you a cuppa (or a G&T) for the journey. Business Women In isn’t just another network, it’s the best-kept secret for women in business. But honestly? It shouldn’t be a secret. Every woman deserves this.

BWI is a great networking for women across the Southwest. I have attended meetings in various locations in my area, and it has been a real boost to my business. Being able to share my business through networking, brainstorm ideas and have the support is vital to my growth as a self-employed business owner. Highly recommend. I attend currently Frome BWI, and soon will also attend Bradford--On-Avon. Thanks Michelle for this fabulous Networking group and to Karen Leigh who runs the Frome BWI.

Love attending the BWI Bath, hosted by Rachel and BWI Frome, hosted by Karen. Both groups, their hosts and the BWI community as a whole are so supportive, friendly and just good for the soul. Attending the meet ups have transformed my business and boosted my mental health and confidence. Being a business owner can be a lonely place and coming to the meet ups not only gets me out of my home office but gives me the opportunity to meet so many interesting, inspirational women and gain support I just wouldn't get anywhere else. I always leave feeling energised and ready to tackle whatever comes next.
