Disabled Entrepreneurs Networking

A friendly, supportive and productive monthly virtual networking meeting for entrepreneurs with any form of disability or health issues.

This is a regular opportunity to bring together business owners with any form of physical or mental health issues to network together, advise each other and build up contacts across the whole of the UK.

The monthly online networking session will feature a short 10 minute talk by a speaker with a health issue - or someone who is an advocate for those with a disability - before we go into breakout rooms so attendees can network with one another in a friendly and supportive environment.

This month's guest speaker is Jayne Bratton, owner of The Bratton Group.

Jayne runs a successful multifaceted company which supports businesses grow. They provide business growth coaching, deliver a variety of management and coaching training through our City and Guilds / ILM Approved Centre, run an IT company specifically for small businesses, deliver large change and IT projects and also (as a not-for-profit) we run a business growth club. Jayne is also a Trustee for The Royal Military Police Central Benevolent Fund and is the Chair of FND Dimensions. Jayne has been a finalist in many business and entrepreneur awards since 2015, including an FSB Hertfordshire Business Person of the Year finalist a number of times.

Jayne will be delivering a 15 minute upbeat presentation full of thought provoking perspectives to consider when growing your business and looking for new customers.

These virtual networking meetings are part of the FSB's ongoing Business Without Barriers campaign which aims to encourage inclusive, supportive workplaces and offer advice for the country's army of disabled entrepreneurs.

This free #FSBConnectOnline networking is open to all businesses - both FSB members and non-members are welcome to attend, so please feel free to share with your networks.
