This year we celebrate the 25th anniversary of the WBC Open Meetings which was formerly known as Bicester Business Breakfast Club! A great achievement I'm sure you'll agree.
We have one open meeting every month, except December, where we open our doors to all businesses that would like to enjoy a great breakfast, interesting speakers and grow their connections with lots of networking opportunities. Our members meet every week and if you ever consider joining us, we do accept guests for breakfast at these meetings too.

Literally, a lifetime of experiences in and around business ownership & management is available for you to access as you launch, grow and evolve your business through the good times and the more challenging ones as well.
My experiences in sectors such as; construction, retail, media, partnership building, networking, heritage, tourism & leisure along with business support have resulted in:
- High levels of adaptability
- Resistance to negativity
- Transferable skills
- Recognised ideas and creative ability
- A highly connected network of reliable contacts
All of which helps me to help my clients to find their way to a less stressful business experience, making them happier and easier to live and work with.
Being a business mentor allows me to follow my deepest core passion - supporting and helping others. I would be delighted to listen to what your circumstances are and see if I can help you find clarity and certainty about your direction and then support you in finding the confidence to deliver on the identified actions required to achieve your targets.
All those experiences lived, the knowledge learned from them along with the leadership skills developed are now being offered to support and assist others facing their own challenges in business.
