Launched in June 2006 by Barbara Hastings-Asatourian of Contraception Education and Kathy Ford of the Solutions Agency, who through setting up their own businesses realised the power of face to face networking. Glossop Business Network helps businesses to meet together in a relaxed environment to exchange information, hand out promotional materials and learn more about each others' services. We also invite speakers who are skilled in helping small businesses and sole traders access services they need.
