Norwich Business Leaders Maids Head & Bonds

!CHANGE OF DAY AND DATE!

The last but one Business Leaders Lunch ever…. Thursday 2nd October, The Maids Head Hotel.

Dear Business Leaders Community,

Sadly, due to unavoidable circumstances the Business Leaders Lunch that was planned for Friday 19th September will now be on Thursday 2nd October at The Maids Head Hotel – we apologise for this and hope that all those that bought tickets are able to make the new date. In addition, we hope that many more of you can join them on the new date.

The Business Leaders community has grown from a few to many, and one county to 4 over the 7 years it has existed. Raising over 150k for charity along the way and connecting 1000s of business owners across the east region.

The last 2 events in Norfolk will be at two of our favourite venues The Maids Hotel and we then return to where it all began at The Norfolk Club on Thursday 11th December.

Building on some incredible events and growth in our community in 2025 including memorable events at Jarrolds, Norwich City Football, Barnham Broom, Arcadia and Norfolk County Cricket we're delighted to be returning to the superb Maids Head Hotel on Thursday 2nd October – where Jo and the team there have always done a superb job of looking after us.

As we enjoy another superb meal prepared by the excellent team, we will hear from three businesses doing great things across our fine city and county.

Firstly, Fisher and Co will be very generously sponsoring the wine. Ian, Rachel and the team there are now marking their 3rd anniversary and they are keen to share it with the business leader’s community. They also have a celebration event at The Exchange Buildings on Friday 3rd October that all are invited too – please put it in your diary. It will be straight after work affair at 1730 with a complementary bar.

We will also be hearing from the team at Bonds and Regency Security who will be telling us all about the fundraiser they are hosting at Bonds on Thursday 30th October in aid of the Community Sports Foundation – and there will be a post lunch reception for all hosted at Bonds from 4-7pm after the lunch. All are welcome and encouraged to carry on the connecting and raising a complimentary glass to our community post lunch. Thank you to Gary, Mark, Morgan, and Caroline for their support of the lunch and the kind post lunch reception at Bonds. You have been great friends to the business leader’s community over the years.

After a the delicious main course, we'll hear from the Team at Flatout who having done their infamous first event at Saxon Air in May are returning but this time to Norwich City Centre at what will become an iconic fitness venue - Rose Lane Car Park! Patrick Matthews from Summit (Head Coach at Flatout) as well as some of the gyms and participants induing Rebecca Campbell of Ensors will join us to talk about fitness, wellbeing and community participation.

We look forward to seeing you all at another fantastic Norfolk Business Leaders Lunch and hope to see as many of you there together for the last be one time.

Tickets for Decembers final lunch will go on sale in the day at the Maids Head so that those attending get the opportunity to secure their place for the final lunch as we are limited to just 75 spaces for that.

Thank you to all.
