Plan B

Plan B is a not-for-profit networking group based in Southport, created to support local professionals after the closure of the Southport Chamber of Commerce in 2013. We’re run by members, for members, with a focus on genuine connection, shared knowledge, and collaborative growth.

No, there’s no referral pressure here. While we encourage supporting each other’s businesses, everything is based on trust, not obligation.

Nope! We understand life gets busy. Regular attendance helps build stronger connections, but we’re flexible and welcoming even if you can’t make every meeting.

No rigid rules. No suits and ties required. We focus on meaningful conversations, professional growth, and creating a supportive environment without the pressure of traditional networking groups.

We welcome professionals, business owners, freelancers, and anyone looking to grow their network and contribute to a positive, collaborative community.

As a not-for-profit group, we only charge what’s necessary to cover running costs—no inflated fees or hidden charges.

Just reach out! Come along to one of our meetings as a guest, meet the members, and see if it’s the right fit for you.
