Last Thursday, we had another great morning at BNI Royal Wessex.

This week's education slot was delivered by Lucy, who spoke about the importance of building relationships and how stronger relationships lead to better referrals.

We also had a brilliant 10 minute presentation from Tim, giving members a deeper insight into how he helps his clients.

And congratulations to Steve Till, who won this week's Oscar and will receive a 2 minute presentation slot at next week's meeting.
