1. CHAMBER MEMBER TESTIMONIALS
What some of our members say……..
“I’m a typical one man band and I was in two minds about
joining the Chamber; I thought it would be all the ‘big boys’
and solicitors and accountants and so on. Despite that, I took
the plunge. I’m glad I did as it’s turned out to be a really wise
move for me. I picked up an ongoing photographic / website /
social media contract from the first meeting I went to and
more work at subsequent meetings; I’m being given (free)
technical development, research and support in applying
Augmented Reality to my work from the Touch Digital project
through meeting them at a Chamber event; plus I’ve got a
listing in the Chamber Directory! The old adage is true – it’s not
what you know, it’s who you know – through the Chamber I’m
far less isolated and I’ve got to know a lot of smashing,
supportive people both on the staff and within the
membership. Yes, there are solicitors and accountants of
course” - Kevin Harper, Kaydee Images Limited
“Through our membership of Solihull Chamber we
have raised our profile in the business community and
met many other business owners in all types of
organisation.
Through the Chamber we have access to a wide range
of services that are readily accessible and varied in
nature. The Chamber is constantly striving to keep
businesses up to date with topical issues of national
and local relevance and to provide events and
information that are regular, useful and add value to
membership” - Kate Shakesheff, Marketing
Manager, Sydney Mitchell Solicitors
“2013 has been a great year for the school
and I have to say that the Chamber of
Commerce and the support that you have
given us has contributed greatly to that. I
look forward to the continued success in
2014 “- Howard Rose, Funding and
Publicity Manager, Balsall Common
Primary School
“I’m just sending you some feedback regarding
Wednesday’s trip to Mansell Construction by
year 5 from Langley Primary. The day was so
well organised and perfect for the children.
The trip taught the children some valuable life
skills as well as introducing them to real life
experiences which enable them to learn about
how their own houses might have been built.
The workmen were all friendly and
informative. I’d like to say that the chap who
was doing the bricklaying was especially good,
he had a great rapport with the kids. The
practical nature of the trip was wonderful and
the children really appreciated the goody bag
and the certificate. The girls who were helping
organise it were great too, they looked after
staff and children and were very approachable
and friendly. A massive success in general and
an experience which I hope we are chosen for
next time as well” - Matthew Hornsey from
Langley Junior School
