A wee reminder to all SBFer's if you would like to come to the charity business networking event to help raise funds for The Thistle Foundation....several SBF'ers already are.
Some of the SBF community kindly donated raffle prizes and below is our most recent marketing email, which include weekend breaks to Milan, Belgium and Czech Republic.
We are aiming for 100 businesses and we have 70 already.
It will be a great afternoon, as it the second time we have organised this.
