The team at MELCC are proactive and professional, so we have been very impressed since becoming members in 2022. We have attended a number of their events, such as the Business Awards and Business Expo and found them to be extremely rewarding and beneficial for our business. The Chamber has a growing and diverse membership, so overall its an excellent platform for Hargreaves Land as we continue our development of Blindwells.

Members’ Testimonials

The team at MELCC have been incredibly supportive of our business. The events held are always really informative and great opportunities to make new connections with other local businesses. The team at the chamber are always happy to make an introduction to ensure you get the most out of attending the events and don't miss out on potential opportunities. The Newsletter is a great way to stay up to date on what's happening in the local business community, and very helpful in terms of highlighting potential funding or training opportunities.
