Come join us on Fri, 19th September , 2025 in beautiful Crawfordsburn for the Rising Tide Network. Swapping business attire for dryrobes and small talk for authentic connections, this is networking with a natural difference.
Ciaran May hosts this incredible event for all human beings that crave connection...
Connection to self, nature and others...
We warmly welcome you inside the Scout Center, where there will be introductions and tips from your host on how to get the best results from networking authentically. Then we'll walk down to the beach together, before enjoying a transformative group dip in the cold irish sea. After our dip, we heat things up with a wood-fired sauna, hot delicious breakfast and two inspiring guest speakers back at the venue.
Our two resilient speakers on this occasion are TBA. Keep tuned!
🧜No swimming experience is necessary, just a wee bit of bravery.
Here's what some of our previous attendees had to say:
"I find that it's incredibly calming, it grounds me, it's now an integral part of my life. I would really recommend it to anyone out there who wants to do something different, wants to get out of their comfort zone, and wants to really push themselves"
Anthony Kieran, Proprietor of Regency House in Belfast; Co-founder of UsedcarsNI.com; MD at Aurient Ltd.
"A fabulous morning- an immensely enjoyable dip and a lovely bunch of biz owners to boot. Hats off to the speakers - brilliant story, beautifully delivered, and still bringing a wee tear to my eye even now as I write this. definitely, the best networking event I've ever been to, and will hopefully get back again (I normally loathe the idea of networking events and would rather stick needles in my eyes than go to them)" Sean Grant, Director & Development Coach at CoreImpact
