Exmouth Chamber of Commerce – Business Support for Coronavirus

By Guest 29th Jul 2021

The Exmouth Chamber of Commerce Executive Committee features volunteers from a range of sectors and businesses.

The team are passionate about being proactive and mobilising any support they can during the Coronavirus crisis to ensure local businesses can weather this storm.

In order to do so, they have created a few initiatives to help.

The initial features of their initiatives, to gain better understanding of what their members and local businesses need, are as follows:

  1. The first initiative is a live and interactive BUSINESS SUPPORT WEBINAR

On Tuesday 24th March at 11am, volunteers Ian Macqueen (Exmouth Chamber of Commerce Chairman) and Laura Woodward-Drake (Exmouth Chamber secretary) will be running an online meeting for Chamber Members and local Businesses to discuss the effects of Covid-19 on their business so far.

The forum will cover the following agenda:

-What effect have current restrictions had on supply and demand

-What are businesses doing with staffing + what are options require HR support

-What support is needed to enable staff to work from home

-What financial support is needed from the government

-What support is needed for the hospitality industry

-What opportunities to adapt and excel can be found in these trying times

Other questions to the forum, sent in by businesses in advance.

This session is to find out what is needed in the immediate future/ how the Chamber and its contacts can represent local companies and to collaborate on solutions found as we work through difficulties we face as a business community.

You can sign up via the below link and and discover how to tune in to the web based video/phone conference.

If you need support with setting up, please email [email protected]

  1. The second initiative is the Chamber "Love local" list.

The Chamber propose to form a list of business offers and adaptations, which can be advertised to members and followers via our various platforms. They are asking for people to let them know what they're doing, so it can be advertised and promoted.

If you are a cafe offering no contact delivery or a book shop offering discounts on products or even a retailer needing more workers, let us know and let us shout about it, to help drive trade in these trying times! #LoveLocalList
