It may have been the day before Halloween, but there was nothing scary about the latest Uckfield Chamber of Commerce networking breakfast...apart from the early start and a room full of local businesspeople who hadn't yet had their morning coffee!
From independent businesses and retailers to employers investing in their people, this year’s Uckfield Business Awards celebrated the achievements of businesses and individuals from Uckfield and the surrounding areas.
Our members' meeting returned to Buxted Park Hotel's impressive Ballroom, with guests also having exclusive use of the Coat of Arms lounge and adjoining bar area.

Our breakfasts are a regular fixture in the Chamber calendar, taking place every other month at venues around Uckfield.

On a gloriously warm evening, around 50 guests gathered at the stunning Bluebell Vineyard in Furners Green for the Uckfield Chamber of Commerce members meeting.
