Just joined the FSB and can’t believe what you get for your money! It offers really good value for any small business in terms of the resources available and the protection it offers. Martin did my introductory familiarisation session covering the website and all the resources and was superb. Looking forward to using all of my benefits whilst I setup my new business. Thanks.

I have been networking with FSB now since the 1st lockdown. I find it really easy to decide what I want to attend, and book it.
My favourite networking group is the Women's Devon and Cornwall group, ( I live in Devon). This is one of the smaller groups, which is one of the reasons I love it. Very supportive, friendly, and welcoming. Usually a mix of people I know pretty well now, and new attendees. Ness is the host, and she is absolutely lovely. She is particularly great at placing people together who she thinks will gel, in breakout rooms.
I look forward to this event every month.

We were worried when we first joined as we were a new business but the support we have had has been incredible. Networking has been fantastic not just for the business as we have met some great people but whenever we have needed advice they have always come and sat with us. They have helped us in securing some big contracts as well.

I recently joined FSB. A few days later, I received a welcoming phone call and the opportunity to book a further call with one of their advisors to learn more about the benefits FSB offers its members. After an hour working through the different areas of the website, I was surprised at the extent of resources available. Definately worth an hour of my time...thank you Morgan!

I had a question I needed answered with regards to a legal matter. Very shortly after ringing the FSB I got a return phone call from a young man called Francis. He was amazing. He explained everything so well, took his time with me and was such a gentleman. He also sent me a link with regards to the matter we were talking about so I could get even more help. I would be a member of the FSB for this service alone! Gloria

As a small business, I have seen the amount of information and help available through the FSB.
I have just recently attended a bootcamp where I was able to listen to some excellent speakers, talk to exhibitors and meet other business owners.
It was a great day.

We had a stand at the FSB Business Bootcamp and it was a great way for us to connect with our target market and showcase what Grow London Local does and how we can support small and micro businesses and the self-employed!

Attending the FSB Business Bootcamp at TBXH @ Sunley House was an invigorating experience! The stylishly designed space provided the perfect backdrop for a day dedicated to empowering small business owners.
From insightful sessions to invaluable networking opportunities, every moment was tailored to support and inspire growth.
The practical skills acquired and the connections made are sure to propel my business forward. Plus, the complimentary lunch was a delightful bonus!
Hopefully looking forward to repeat of this amazing event. I highly recommend this event to entrepreneurs and small business owners looking to develop and grow their businesses.
Lovethat lots

Starting a business is a busy time, so having Justin take time to show me what FSB has to offer was a fantastic introduction. Happy to be a member of the FSB :)

My advisor Mark Turland was great. He was very helpful, informative and professional. I am really glad I was introduced to FSB and the benefits they provide. I am looking forward to a long lasting relationship and support in growing my business

The FSB bootcamp in Croydon was amazing. The venue was superb. Food was great, staff were so helpful. They kept supplies topped up throughout the day. There were some fantastic speakers and exhibitors. And it was so well attended. Can't wait for the next one!

What a fantastic FSB Bootcamp! Super well organised and enjoyable. I didn't know what to expect but was pleasantly surprised. So much to do, talk about, learn, connect and great food! Thank you very much. I'd love to attend another of your bootcamp in the future if this is the quality!

I did not know what to expect from this FSB event. It was worth the journey. The event was action packed from start to finish with a variety of speakers speaking on topics that impact businesses. There were nuggets for all business types to take away. The venue was easy to find and everything was well organised. A day well-spent with the
opportunity to also network with like-minded people. (Tutoristic)

I am not sure what I was expecting from the FSB but I was hoping that I would get some help in understanding the business world when starting up my own small business.
The welcome service *I have received was fantastic. I received a phone call initially that explained what the FSB did and I quickly realised that the FSB would be a very useful resource for me, so I signed up here and then.
All actions were followed up and received another meeting invite to walk me through the FSB platform which was truly informative and Morgan Lamoureux was brilliant, down to earth, chatty and responsive to my queries. Again all actions from the call were completed as soon as we were off the call!
The platform is extremely well prese3tned and easy to navigate and there are a plethora of useful resources, webinars and meetings to join.
I am very grateful that the Facebook advert popped up for me and I requested further information!

Great welcome experience. I signed up online and very quickly got contact from the fsb central team arranging a call. On the call Mark talked me through all the different benefits of membership, there were many I had glanced over and not fully understand - absolutely a valuable hour spent and I'm really impressed with how much is included in my membership - will review again in the future once I've taken advantage of some of these!

I am absolutely blown away by the service of Karen in the awards Team. Over and above the call of duty! She has helped make the day be possible for me to be a part of it all, I had some obstacles in the way but she has made it happen - thank you SO much!

I’ve recently attended my second FSB event for women and both times I’ve been struck by the diverse businesses leaders who come together, each offering something unique. I’d highly recommended these expertly hosted events to all women in business, where a warm welcome is guaranteed.

The FSB is a great source of learning, support, and inspiration. As I work solo from home and have little background in business, the well-organised and friendly networking meetings are hugely helpful. There is also a wealth of free resources on the FSB site on running a business, and members of FSB are generous in sharing their expertise and advice. I've also benefitted from training sessions on how to set up a business, eg. accounts, marketing, and working with clients. Other benefits far exceed the membership price, such as healthcare services, insurance, and advocacy for small businesses.
I wholeheartedly recommend joining!

I joined the FSB in January 2024 and had a variety of objectives - from utilising document templates, to making connections and understanding the landscape for small businesses.
I organised a call with my local Development Manager, Ann Scott, and she could not have been more helpful. After I explained my business, she sent through a raft of contacts at potential customers, investment ideas, research grant opportunities and more. It has massively accelerated our work and I am very grateful.
The FSB has a long list of useful resources online, but the added value of talking to the Development Managers and seeing how they can help you is incredible - worth the membership fee alone.
