Welcome to the WiRE Local Networks Page

Love it or Loathe it, the more networking you do the more your successful your business will be. We know how important networking with like-minded business women is and we know how these networks can improve your skills, boost your confidence and bring you new business. WiRE is the only network for rural businesswomen and currently has 80 WiRE Local Networks across the UK (scroll down the page to find your nearest). 

WiRE members are welcome to go along FREE as part of your membership package, if you are not a member you are welcome to visit twice before you join.

WiRE Local Networks are run by WiRE member volunteers, so if there isn't a business networking group in your area – you can START ONE! We mentor and train you and provide all the resources you need. Contact mel@wireuk.org 01952 815399 for more information.
