Company Women

Company Women is a supportive, dynamic networking group open to all businesswomen.

Our May Company Women Lunch will be focusing on’ A Spring in Your Step in the Right Direction’

We all loose our way sometimes or get a bit stuck in a rut so lets get some bright ideas together and have a catalyst meeting. Company Women is all about support and a fresh approach may be the answer.

Our May lunch will be held at the popular Piedra De La Luna restaurant in Benimar 2, we were so looked after last time we just had to return.

One4 speaker slot is available at the lunch, so if you would like to promote your company as one of our May speakers then please email Ena at enacummings@hotmail.com

We look forward to seeing and sharing with you our plans for the next few months. These include the outcome of the AGM , future events, and  going back to some of our favourite venues.

Gemma Broad previously from Europa network will be there promoting her new role as Female Wealth Management which is part of Continental Wealth Management which is a Company that gives Financial Advice.  Her role is dealing with QROPS which is releasing pensions and she will be particularly concentrating on Women as she feels a Woman prefers dealing with another Woman when it comes to financial discussions.

Don’t forget your business cards and promotional material for the table provided and of course for our free lunch business card draw. We will be hosting our usual raffle for our chosen charity this year the Easy Horsecare Rescue Centre.

CW would also like to invite volunteers for a fun filled few hours helping out at the Easy Horsecare Centre….you don’t have to be good with horses, there is plenty to do there apart from mucking out etc…..the charity shop, lots of other animals to be fed and watered or even serving refreshments and cakes. The date is to be confirmed….there will be lots of press for this so maybe you would like to bring colleagues along for a team building session! Please see me or contact me for more info.

I met Maria recently from Pink Ladies and I have a sponsorship form for doing the 5km walk from Playa Flamenca on June the 10th, so lets get a CW gang together and help towards researching this terrible disease. We all know someone or have lost someone to Cancer, so spare a few hours in the the sun and lets going ‘walking on sunshine’ together for this great cause!

I have kindly been given some free passes and discount flyers for Sophia Wellness Centre, so make sure you pick one up!
