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.

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.

At Open Door Digital we love local businesses (naturally!) and this blog will show you the power of Google Local Services Ads to reach more customers, with a more predictable budget.

Zetetick Housing Charity is inviting Uckfield businesses to support its Safe, Warm and Well this Winter campaign, helping adults with learning disabilities, autistic people and people with complex needs feel safe, comfortable and independent at home.
One-way communications don’t work
Advocacy and public relations have to be interactive and inclusive or they will fail. Unfortunately, the communications are often one-way, like a speech that pauses for applause but not for response, a monologue rather than a debate, a rigid position statement that assumes everyone has the same characteristics.
