MP NADHIM Zahawi paid a visit to Alcester to meet business leaders from across south Warwickshire during a lunchtime meeting at Minerva Mill Innovation Centre.
The Business Change Maker’s Lunch invited sixteen business owners to meet with Mr. Zahawi and discuss both the local and national economic outlook.
The event was arranged by the Alcester Business Club, which was established in 2023 to provide local businesses from Alcester and the surrounding areas with the opportunity to extend their business network and work collaboratively.
The networking event takes place each month at Minerva Mill.
Minerva Mill’s business manager Nick Irons said: “We’re delighted with how well received the Alcester Business Club has been since we started last year.
“At our event with Nadhim Zahawi, we wanted to bring together business owners whose objectives aren’t solely profit motivated, but instead are working towards making a difference in their community.
“By hosting the Business Change Maker’s Lunch, we have also managed to raise £300 for The Trussell Trust, which will hopefully support them with their mission to fight UK wide poverty.”
Mr Zahawi added: “The meeting at Minerva Mill re-enforced my belief that Alcester is a great place to do business.
“It was a genuine pleasure to meet with business owners who are actively giving back to their communities, providing local employment and supporting opportunities for economic growth.”
