Sandgrounders Business Club in Southport returns this November with two superb speakers.
This busy networking event takes place at Southport Football Club on Haig Avenue, Southport, PR8 6JZ on Thursday the 13th November 2025.
Sandgrounders Business Club is free for all to attend, no registration needed.
Doors open at 5pm for an hour of open networking.
From 6pm, people can hear from David Quilliam, owner of Discretion Hearing in Southport, and Jonathan Cunningham, from Southport First Responders.
People are then welcome to stay for more open networking if they wish.
Thank you to everyone who came to our Sandgrounders Business Club networking event in October.
We enjoyed three superb speakers with:
Tom Woods, Operations Director at Halcyon IT
Chris Norris, Financial Planner at Fore Financial Planning
Elliott Horan, Southport Football Club Commercial Director
We heard some superb advice about IT, and about why it’s never too early to plan for your financial future.
Elliott spoke about some of the many positive changes happening at the club with more exciting news to come.
Sandgrounders Business Club is a free monthly networking event.
There is free roadside parking with the doors opening at 5pm.
Event co-organiser Aaron Midgeley said: “I would like to thank our four main sponsors Southport FC, Stand Up for Southport, Midgley Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning and Birkdale Insurance Group for their continued support.
“There is no requirement to pre-book a place, just turn up on the night.”
Sandgrounders Business Club encourages individuals to meet, network, pitch and develop business.
Alongside networking and sharing great ideas with like-minded individuals, Sandgrounders Business Club provides you with an opportunity to connect your business to an ever-growing local and national audience reached by Southport FC through matchday advertising, branding on the official club website and entertaining clients with matchday VIP hospitality.
People are then free to stay for more networking and to chat with other business owners present.
All are welcome.
It is a relaxed, friendly, informal event to help support local businesses in Southport and the surrounding area.
The gathering is open to businesses in the Southport area and beyond.
