Looking for a volunteer to help us get started in the county of Cambs. Need somebody local to find a suitable low-cost venue where branch meetings can be held every 6 wks (approx). All branches are self-financing and organised by members for members.
Contact me at k.bell@talk21.com if you have any ideas!

Thanks Kirsty,
Looking to start a branch in Cambs in late January/early February. I need someone to find a suitable venue up to £50 for a minimum of 2 hours on a midweek evening. If you can assist in this, I will arrange and chair the first branch meeting at which we can decide the future organisation. Please contact with any ideas. Ken k.bell@talk21.com

Hello
I see that the next meeting for Cambridgeshire branch of the ICB is today, unfortunately I cannot attend the meeting today due to my current work committments.
Can anyone tell me if there is a schedule or calendar available for future meetings of the Cambs branch or is the date set one meeting at a time?
Looking forward to attending a branch meeting at some point hopefully in the not too distant future as I have yet to attend one and hope it will further develop what I an currently studying.

Hi All,
I asked Xero to come but as I am a Bronze (not Silver) and don't have guaranteed 20+ people they wouldn't! Shay did send me some freebies (booklets, lanyards and pens)
So with agreement of our group I have arranged for Quickbooks to come and present.
See you there :-)
Wed 14th Jan 7-9pm I suggested that he will do say 7.15-8ish and then some questions?
Good morning Kirsty,
Further to our conversation earlier, I have arranged the meeting with Neil Derbyshire on Wednesday 14th January at the Oliver Cromwell Hotel in March.
In this meeting it would be great if we could cover:
- Your objectives and how we can support you and Bookkeepers
- A brief history of Intuit and our current strategy to support accountants
- Your client base and how they are currently being managed
- QuickBooks Online product
- Our programme offering and the benefits that we provide our Partners
Please feel free to forward this on invite to any other colleagues you wish to include in the meeting, and let me know their details so that I can update this appointment accordingly.
