BUPA 10k run - United Through Sport Charity

United Through Sport Team - Leicester Square

Lloyd Morgan, founder of Cross Networking, has continued links with United Through Sport charity, via the video production work he carries out for the Bhubesi Pride charity project.

As a result he was approached by James Burton, founder of United Through Sport, 5 weeks ago, and asked to join the UTS team at the London BUPA 10k run. Reluctant at first, like any non-runner would be, Lloyd commited to the run, and began his training.

Needless to say, there were many aching legs, and funny walks over the past month, but yesterday on a very sunny May Bank holiday, Lloyd joined the team in London and undertook his first ever run!

The day was a great success, and the team raised a fantastic amount of money for the charity.

Well done to Lloyd Morgan and the rest of the team, and Cross Networking will show our on going support for the United Through Sport Charity.

Cross Networking events

Last Thursday we held an informal Wine Tasting networking event, as part of the five free events a year included for our members. The event was held at The Grove bar in Ashley Cross, Poole, and the venue did a fantastic job of organising the evening, and provided a spread of delicious wines accompanied by appropriate cheeses and nibbles.

The evening started early to allow all our members and guests the opportunity to attend, whether they came straight from work, or joined us later in the evening.




Other than our core members, it was great to see new faces at the event, and also to receive great feedback.  We look forward to seeing some of those new faces at this weeks Structured business breakfast.


Cross Networking Wine Tasting Evening

It is important that we provide events for our members which are not only enjoyable, but beneficial.  We have regular discussions on the Cross Networking forum to see what our members want, and aim to accomodate each and every members needs.

A huge thanks to everyone who attended the Wine Tasting evening, and we look forward to seeing you at our next event.

Dorset Entrepreneurs Circle

Lloyd Morgan attended the first Entrepreneurs Circle meeting in Dorset, ran by Ali Carter (Cross Networking Member), at the Black Label conferencing facilities at AFC Bournemouth yesterday evening.

The event had a great turn out with a wide range of local 'entrepreneurs' attending to hear Ali's business advice.  The title for the meeting was 'The Seven Musts of Effective Marketing', and the group were keen to contribute to the talk, and many of the attendees passed on invaluable advice from their own experiences.

Ali Carter did a fantastic job of hosting the event, and getting everyone involved in the discussions, which resulted in a very interactive and productive seminar.

Lloyd said "Ive taken a lot away from the evening, and I will take a good look at the marketing strategies of my business, and hope to implement some of the suggested structures and monitoring systems to ensure the money I invest into marketing is utilised to its potential."

The next Entrepreneurs Circle meeting will be held on 21st June, please contact Ali Carter for more details.
