JOIN YOUR LOCAL CHAMBER COMMITTEE Cambridgeshire Chambers of Commerce is made up of six local Chambers covering Cambridge & South Cambs, Ely & East Cambs, Fenland, Huntingdonshire, Peterborough and Stamford. Each local Chamber committee is made up of member companies from a wide range of sectors bringing their own experience and expertise to the group. You can play a leading role in tackling issues in your local area through joining the committee of your local Chamber. You can have an input into helping the Chamber lobby local MPs on matters of local, regional and national economic interest. If this is of interest to you, please email chamber@cambscci. co.uk and specify the local area you would like to join and we will arrange for the Chair of that Chamber to get in touch with you.

BE PART OF OUR INTERNATIONAL SECTOR GROUP As well as coping with Covid-19 and the restrictions imposed on businesses, we have also had to adapt to the changes that Brexit has enforced on companies trading internationally. We will be re-launching our International Sector Group over the next couple of months and are looking for individuals to join the committee to shape the group and discuss the events and seminars we should be running going forwards to support our local importers and exporters. If you have expertise in International Trade, or are an exporter or importer with issues that need support to resolve, and would like to be part of this group please get in touch with Karen Cash, Export Team Supervisor at the Chamber, who will be working with our existing Chair and committee to help move this sector forward. Please email k.cash@cambscci.co.uk or give Karen a call on 01223 237414.
