TWENTY business people attended the last meeting of Liss Connected and met for coffee at the Blue Fig cafe and restaurant, in Plestor House business centre, Liss.

Lively discussions were held and the widely varied group attracted seven new faces, including an electrician, educational consultant and children’s nursery product supplier.

Attendees made some useful contacts, and learned there was one office available for rent at Plestor House.

The Blue Fig is open for coffee midweek (Tuesdays to Thursdays). It accepts a well-behaved dog in the daytime.

Chairman of the finance committee of Liss Parish Council Brian Mayo will be a link between businesses and the parish council. Ruth Gest, of Abacus, encouraged businesses to join the Facebook group so that others can find out who is trading in the village.

The next meeting of Liss Connected will be at Brow’s Farm Business Park, hosted by Norad Travel, at 11am on Wednesday, January 20, 2016. Entry is £2.

Representatives of any Liss businesses wanting to attend can contact Campbell Wilson, of Core Financial Services, at [email protected] or ring Keren Burney, of Compege PR, on 01730 894123.
