Netwalks

Small Business Britain is proud to host Netwalks in 12 locations across the UK, in partnership with B.T.

Netwalks, created by Small Business Britain and led by engaging local small businesses, give you a chance to get out of your usual workplace and meet up with other local businesses. Share ideas and experiences, build your small business support network and make time to walk and talk.

The Netwalks allow you to take some time for self-care, to enjoy some fresh air and a change of scenery and to help self-manage your mental health wellness.

Netwalks take place each month in our 12 locations and you can pick and choose whichever you would like to join. The walks are planned to be accessible, in well-lit spaces and in the day time. We end each walk with a stop at an independently owned coffee shop where the refreshments are on us, enjoy a coffee and a cake and carry on those conversations.

Fetch the dogs, fetch the children – we know that the small business world can be unpredictable, just like real life. If you’re not up to the walk but would still like to join the group then sign up and meet us at the coffee shop.

Netwalk program will include:

Monthly walks for small business owners to join, each ending at a local and independently owned cafe or coffee shop.
The chance to get outside and get active, with other small businesses owners.
All businesses signed up to the Netwalks will be invited to join the private Facebook group to network with other participants and share experiences and questions.

Before applying, please ensure you read and understand our Disclaimer.

Everyone taking part in Small Business Britain Netwalk activities does so at their own risk.

We do not employ qualified guides or first aiders on any of our events. The Netwalk works on the same basis of being a group of friends who go out walking together, who invite others to join them on this basis.

Event organisers and event leaders assume no responsibility for anyone attending any of the Netwalks. Netwalk organisers and walk leaders will not be held responsible for any accident, injury or loss occurring as a result of any Netwalk event or in connection with travel to such event, however caused.

When you join a walk, you indicate that you accept these conditions and accept that no legal liability is accepted by event organisers or event leaders in the event of accident or injury, however caused.

Participants in Netwalks are reminded that outdoor activities frequently need specialist equipment (boots, waterproofs, etc) and the organiser does not provide these. Participants are responsible for assessing their own risk, the safety of themselves and the suitability of any equipment used. Any Medical Conditions that may affect the participants during the walk should be notified to the walk leader prior to the start of the walk.

While accepting no responsibility or liability, for walks and other outdoor events, the event host or walk leader may, at their discretion, not admit you to join the walk or other event if in their opinion you are ill-equipped for the terrain and weather conditions.

Well behaved dogs are allowed on walks but must be kept under close control at all times and on a lead where necessary or requested by the walk leader.

Please note that legal responsibility for any incidents caused by dogs lies with the dog owner.

The minimum age that we can accept is 18 unless occupied by an adult.

Any matters of concern should be directed at Small Business Britain team – [email protected]

The programme does not discriminate against any attendees, but we might be unable to cater for people with special requirements. Every effort will be made to make the walks and the networking coffee as accessible as possible.

Small Business Britain may record and photograph the Netwalks and its attendees. By attending the programme, you consent to your image being used by Small Business Britain and its sponsors for PR, communication, and marketing purposes. If you do not want your image shared it is your responsibility to make the Small Business Britain team aware of this before attending, or at the start of the event.
