Welcome to Uckfield Chamber of Commerce
Uckfield Chamber of Commerce is an established independent Chamber providing a united stronger business voice for businesses within the town and surrounding villages. The Chamber provides regular opportunities for members to meet and network at various times of the day, acting as a forum to discuss issues that impact trade and commerce both locally and the wider area across the county.
We boast a diverse range of business members including third generation established companies to brand new start-ups. And our executive committee is similarly comprised of a range of professionals and independent business owners. It makes every sense to be part of your local Chamber of Commerce.

Chamber Networking Breakfast
Our ‘in person’ networking breakfasts are open to any local business, including non-members. You’ll have an opportunity to speak about your business for 60 seconds and our June guest speaker, is from chamber member, UK Growth Coach.
Uckfield Business Lunch
Back in May we held our inaugural business lunch to add to the existing meeting opportunities for our members and other local businesses. We decided that the meeting cycle should be bi-monthly so we are offering another opportunity to meet informally over lunch on Tuesday 8 July.
Summer Members’ Meeting
Our members’ meetings are the flagship meeting within our calendar (for members only) and we are delighted to return to the wonderful Horsted Place Hotel. Meeting in the Garden Room overlooking the Croquet Lawn this is the perfect summer venue.
A voice for Uckfield businesses
We’re proud to represent organisations of all shapes and sizes from Uckfield and the surrounding area.
Simmons Gainsford have been a member of the Uckfield Chamber of Commerce since we arrived in Uckfield almost 15 years ago. It is a very well run Chamber which is backed up by the number of members that there are. Members meetings are informative and very well attended which is fantastic for the local Uckfield Business Community.

Chamber Sponsor ‘Teacher of the Year’
Who is that person that had most influence on your life as a youngster? If we think back hard enough, we could all probably point to our favourite school teacher! But now, Uckfield Chamber via the Ashdown Radio Community Awards are giving local young people the opportunity to nominate their favourite teacher as we seek to find ‘Teacher of the Year’ for 2025.
A sparkling evening at Bluebell Vineyard
Members of the Uckfield Chamber of Commerce returned to the stunning rural setting of the Bluebell Vineyard for the late spring members’ meeting. Guests were treated to a glass of Bluebell bubbly on arrival, before enjoying some time to network in the relaxed and scenic setting.
Business Lunch: A new way to network
In a refreshing change from our usual early-morning and evening formats, Uckfield Chamber hosted its very first business lunch. And we’re delighted to say it was a great success. Local business owners and professionals gathered at Relish Bar & Grill in Bell Walk for an informal lunchtime meet-up, marking a new addition to the Chamber’s event calendar.
