November 2024 ∙ Lords of the Manor

On 5 November 2024, the Cotswolds Huddle revisited the picturesque Lords of the Manor in Upper Slaughter, a decade after our previous gathering in October 2014. While the past ten years have brought numerous changes, the hotel’s timeless elegance and charm remained, providing an ideal setting for fostering connections and strengthening the Cotswolds business community.

The event, which drew business professionals from diverse sectors throughout the region, was a notable triumph, largely thanks to the outstanding hospitality of the Lords of the Manor team. Their exceptional service, delectable canapés, and refreshing English sparkling wine contributed significantly to the Huddle’s success. As is typical of our gatherings, attendees had the chance to forge new friendships, reconnect with existing contacts, and explore potential business collaborations across various industries. The more than sixty participants actively engaged in open dialogues and shared insights, reinforcing the value of networking and cultivating strong relationships within the local business landscape.

A culture of kindness and support

It’s always amazing to see how supportive the Cotswolds business community is. The Huddle was born out of a desire to create a space where professionals could connect, collaborate, and grow their networks without the formalities often associated with traditional networking events, and this event at Lords of the Manor was all of that and more.

Whatever stage you’re at on your career journey, the Cotswolds Huddle offers a unique opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals, build relationships, and grow your network in a relaxed and enjoyable environment.

The Cotswolds Huddle is a monthly networking event for businesses and people to meet, mingle, and learn from each other. Always free and with refreshments and plenty of opportunities to network with a great bunch of people.
