OUR CHAPTER

What our members say...

This is the best networking group I have ever been a part of. It’s a fantastic way to generate new business and develop relationships with a wide range of professionals at the top of their game.

Simon Dredzen, Walton Estates

I have been a member for over 10 years and continue to benefit from the excellent support network and quality referrals that West One provides.

Owen Williams, sixredsquares

It’s not easy to find a group which shares the same values of service and professionalism, whilst combining it with personality and fun. I am very pleased to have found West One, as it’s one of the few groups that brings together all those attributes; I have not only been able to pass and receive referrals, I have made valuable and long lasting connections in the process.

Oliver Al-Falah, Advanced Insured Resources

I have been a member for over 11 years because of the great relationships, based on trust and the standards of service offered. I can truly say that the members are not just acquaintances but friends, whose support is immeasurable in value.

Ash Gadhavi, Tecno Travel

I joined BNI over three years ago and it has been a hugely rewarding experience. I have met some fantastic people, many who I can say are friends. I highly recommend the BNI platform, for its professionalism, the combined knowledge of businesses and having an expert ready to assist at the tip of your fingers.

Nighat Sahi, RSW Law

We are a group of highly committed super friendly seasoned professionals. We pride ourselves in enabling each other to generate the maximum revenue from our respective businesses - while supporting each other for the greater good.
