Celebrating creativity in Falkirk!

FV Chamber was delighted to be a sponsor at the D2 Creative Art Exhibition this evening - and what a fantastic evening it was!

With over 300 paintings and sculptures on display, the exhibition is a wonderful showcase of the incredible talent, imagination and creativity of our local artists. The event was packed with well-wishers, art lovers and creatives, and it was a real pleasure to meet so many of the talented artists behind the stunning work.

A special shout-out to two of our FV Chamber members, Lesley Anne Derks and Jacqueline Marr who both have studios at D2 Studios and were proudly part of this fantastic exhibition.

It was also great to see Falkirk Lord Provost Stuart Binnie officially open the exhibition.

And finally, a huge well done to Adam McKechnie, Hania Smith and the amazing D2 team. You should take a bow!

The work you do to keep creativity alive for both adults and children through your fantastic programmes is inspiring. D2 provides such a valuable space to learn, create, connect and inspire - and we’re proud to support it.

Here’s to celebrating and championing the incredible creative talent right here in Falkirk!

Another inspiring morning at Let’s Network: Forth Valley!

This time, we were delighted to visit FV Chamber member for a truly fantastic morning of networking, creativity and inspiration.

From the moment we stepped through the doors, it was clear that something special was happening. From the Flavour Lab and photo studio to the creative set spaces and beyond, TDC is a brilliant hub of creativity - and it’s right here on our doorstep!

We were lucky enough to hear from Founder & MD Lauren, who shared the incredible journey of The Drink Cabinet - from what started as a ‘side hustle’ to a thriving team of 10, working on creative projects for some of the world’s biggest drinks brands.

With a talented team bringing together strategists, on-trade specialists, creatives and copywriters, TDC combines drinks-industry expertise with bold creative thinking and the ability to deliver at the level global brands expect.

It was also fantastic to hear about Lauren’s commitment to supporting young people and creating opportunities to experience the world of work, through internships and opportunities to become part of the TDC team.

And, of course, there was one more highlight…

As TDC celebrated its 12th birthday, we were treated to a very special takeaway - a canned cocktail created by Dr Bubbles himself in the Flavour Lab! We’re sure more than a few of us will be enjoying those as we head into the weekend!

Happy 12th Birthday, TDC! 🎉

A huge thank you to Lauren and the whole team for welcoming us and giving us such a fascinating insight into the creativity, expertise and hard work behind the business.

We’ve got lots more Let’s Network events planned, showcasing the fantastic businesses and people across Forth Valley who are helping to strengthen our local economy, create opportunities and keep people in work.

On Saturday, FV Chamber was delighted and honoured to be invited to the SSAFA Forth Valley Annual Garden Party, a very special afternoon held to celebrate the wonderful volunteers who give their time, care and compassion to support others.

Our invitation was particularly meaningful as SSAFA Forth Valley has been FV Chamber’s nominated charity for the past three years. During that time, we have been proud to raise funds and awareness to help support the Forth Valley branch and the vital work it carries out in our community.

At the heart of SSAFA’s work is a simple but incredibly important mission: to help ex-service personnel from all military backgrounds get back on their feet when they leave the Armed Forces. The charity understands the unique demands of service life, whether on UK soil or overseas, and provides support at every stage of a military career - from the youngest recruit to the oldest veteran. No one’s service is ever forgotten.

With more than 2,400 trained volunteers providing personalised, face-to-face support in their local communities, the difference SSAFA makes is truly remarkable.

A huge thank you to the long-serving and dedicated volunteers Mary Kenyon and Sandie Welham for organising such a wonderful afternoon. The event was filled with warmth, nostalgia, music and song, along with a fascinating look back at The Corn Family and their many connections to military service through generations of their family.

It was a privilege to spend time with the volunteers and hear more about the incredible work they do - a wonderful reminder of just how much community, compassion and service matter.

FV Chamber is incredibly proud to continue supporting SSAFA Forth Valley. We are grateful for the opportunity to contribute, however small, to a charity doing such important work for those who have given so much in service to our country.

Here’s to the volunteers who make it all possible❤️

Another fantastic Forth Valley Chamber Hub Club this morning in glorious Stirling sunshine! ☀️

Once again, the Hub Club was completely sold out, bringing together an amazing diverse group of members, each sharing insights into their businesses and expertise.

The conversations covered an incredible range of topics - from nutrition and lifestyle medicine to cyber security, employee ownership trusts, AI, and the growing discussions around data centres. It was a reminder of the breadth of knowledge and innovation within our Chamber community.

One networking tip that really resonated was this: people buy you before they buy your business or your product. Start conversations by talking about yourself first, build genuine connections, and the business discussion will naturally follow.

There were also so many genuine endorsements shared around the table, with members recommending one another’s businesses and celebrating successful collaborations. It was a brilliant example of the Chamber community at its best and a powerful reminder of the importance of supporting Local First - choosing to work with and champion the fantastic businesses right here on our doorstep.

We also heard from a fascinating local business designing and building regenerative, low-energy homes using natural, carbon-storing materials. They introduced many of us to a new term: “Land-to-Living”- a concept that sparked plenty of interest and conversation.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along, shared their experiences, and contributed to another engaging and inspiring Hub Club. It’s mornings like these that remind us just how valuable our Chamber network really is.

Here’s to continuing to connect, collaborate, champion one another, and keep it Local First.

Fantastic to see everyone at Hub Club this morning!👏🏻

So many brilliant conversations both before and after the roundtable discussion. One of the things that makes these events so valuable is the diverse range of businesses represented in the room, bringing together a wealth of perspectives, experiences, and expertise. The fantastic advice, insights, and support shared between members are a hallmark of our events and a real testament to the strength and collaborative spirit of our business community!

We look forward to welcoming you to future events. Please remember that even if an event is fully booked, you can still register to be added to the waiting list.

What a brilliant evening at Stirling’s Culture Night on Friday!

The city centre was full of life, with a fantastic mix of performances, creative showcases, and a real sense of community spirit. Around every corner there was something new to discover - from live music to interactive experiences.

Alison Bell, it was an absolute pleasure to hear you perform with the Tolbooth Choir, and Islay Carmichael, your passion when speaking about the work of the Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders and the role King Street Apart Hotel plays in supporting ongoing fundraising – inspiring!

It was also great to see so many Forth Valley Chamber members involved - hosting, performing, and helping bring the whole evening together. A perfect example of what can be achieved when local businesses and creatives collaborate.

Huge credit to everyone at for making it happen — Jillan & Fiona, you and your teams should be incredibly proud!

Already looking forward to next year! 👏

What a fantastic morning at Forth Valley Chamber at Coalfields Regeneration Trust.

Another brilliant session filled with insight, inspiration, and real community impact!

Community truly sits at the heart of everything CRT does. Their work across former coalfield communities is all about creating opportunities, improving lives, and helping people reach their full potential - and it’s incredible to have such an impactful organisation right on our doorstep!

From tackling health inequalities to boosting skills, supporting jobs, and driving climate action, their mission-led approach is making real, lasting change where it’s needed most.

Some of their amazing programmes include:
• CRT Engage – supporting people into better health, skills, and employment
• CRT Game On – using sport to inspire and transform lives
• CRT Hubs – creating welcoming spaces for community support
• CRT Place – focused, local action where it matters most
• CRT Support – helping community organisations thrive
• CRT Together – working alongside Macmillan Cancer Support to ensure no one faces cancer alone

A huge thank you to Pauline Grandison and the team for sharing their passion and dedication - it really shone through!

And yes… some of you may have spotted a certain familiar face!

While Dolly Parton didn’t quite make a guest appearance, we loved hearing about CRT’s connection to her incredible Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library - inspiring a love of reading for children across the world. An initiative rooted in something so personal, now making a global impact – just amazing!

To top it all off, their base in Kincardine (just over the bridge!) offers fantastic hot-desking and conference facilities - definitely worth checking out.

Another inspiring reminder of the power of community and collaboration!
