Friday 28th September - Networking and 30-minute Mastermind

Friday 26th October - Networking and 30-minute Mastermind

Friday 23rd November - Networking and talk on GDPR.

Alex Rabbetts will speak about the following.

The General Data Protection Rules that came into force on the 25th May this year are some of the most mis-understood, mis-quoted, mis-represented rules that have ever been introduced. Unfortunately, a relatively simple piece of legislation was written in an overly complex manner which was further exacerbated by a very large number of ‘experts’ appearing from nowhere who were providing ‘fake’ advice. GDPR does not require you to delete any mailing data you may have. GDPR does not require a double opt-in. GDPR does not mean you can never send out another mailing. But there are some strict rules about what you can do and what you must do - they are simple to follow and simple to implement if done correctly and give your business protection in addition to individuals about whom you may hold personal data.

Friday 7th December - Christmas lunch or buffet starting at 12 midday. MUST BE PRE-BOOKED.
