‘I was delighted to find a networking group for local business women who meet regularly, chat and share business ideas. I came away from my first FBWN meeting inspired and motivated and very pleased to have become a member of this innovative group of working women. The lunch was excellent too!’

Welcome to the
Forest of Dean Business Women's Network

The Forest of Dean Business Women’s Network is a network of both fledgling and established companies within and around the Forest of Dean. Set up to provide support and a point of contact, our aim is to promote the professionalism of local women and increase the stature of women in business in the Forest of Dean

We meet once a month for a morning meeting. This provides a framework for sharing experiences, meeting friends and colleagues, and of course the potential for meeting new clients and forging strong business links. Each member is invited to give a short introduction on the products and services their company provides thus providing a platform for promoting their business. We welcome guests who wish to come along and see if they feel that the Forest of Dean Business Women’s Association would be of benefit to them.

If you would like additional information or advice please contact our Association Secretary, Teresa Owen by email or by phoning 01594 541899 .
