Testimonials

Uscita Solutions Ltd have now been members of South Cheshire Chamber for many years. It is fair to say our event attendance ebbs and flows with the demands of work and diary availability but the variety and frequency of events which they host means there is always something interesting for everyone.

When we first joined South Cheshire Chamber of Commerce it seemed like a big move as a business. Move forward 5 years and we’ve made numerous fantastic connections, had the opportunity to attend a variety of workshops and are now involved in supporting events held by the Chamber. Thanks to all at South Cheshire Chamber, here’s to the next 5 years!

South Cheshire Chamber is a great way for Visyon to not only share our free services with those members who are parents but also for networking with those wishing to support local children and young people with their mental health. An event that I had avoided, due to being nervous, was Speed Networking! Dom convinced me that it wasn’t scary and he was right, it was a very friendly group and an amazing way to meet with lots of people in a short space of time. Not only was the event ‘speedy’ it also fast-tracked the support that followed as the asks during the event were much more direct than they would be when going to traditional networking events. If you haven’t tried it please do!

AA has been a very satisfied member of South Cheshire Chamber for over a year now. We have been involved with other Chambers, but find South Cheshire to provide the most well organised in terms of facilitating employer networking and support e.g via its Final Friday and Speed Networking events. Staff are friendly, approachable and helpful – a great help to AA in its primary objective of reaching out to the suffering alcoholic

South Cheshire Chamber of Commerce continues to impress us here at Hope4more. It’s really become the central networking group for us over the last year – almost all the members of any other networking group that we’ve been involved in are present at SCCCI. The events that we have attended have been extremely well run and valuable to us, and the diversity of membership, passion and openness of the members and the SCCCI team have helped us to increase the reach and impact of our service to young people across the area. Whether you’re a not for profit, or profit making business in South Cheshire we strongly recommend SCCCI to you.
