Robert Drury has been named as the new Chair of Lincoln Business Club, which has celebrated its 20th Anniversary with an event held at the Charlotte House Hotel in Lincoln.
It was also the time for Nicola Ellwood to step aside as Chair and pass the baton to her replacement Robert Drury. She said: “As we celebrated our 20th anniversary, we were reminded of the incredible journey we’ve shared as a community of business leaders and entrepreneurs in Lincolnshire. This event was a testament to our collective triumphs and the enduring spirit of collaboration that defines us.
“Stepping down as Chair has been a bittersweet moment for me. I’ve cherished every moment leading this incredible club and look forward to seeing it thrive under Robert’s leadership.”
Robert said: “What a pleasure and privilege it was to be part of the wonderful Lincoln Business Club 20th birthday celebrations – how amazing was it to see all of our wonderful community out for the night and I just want to say how proud I am of our committee for pulling together what I believe will be remembered as one of the nights of the year for so many.
“And then there was that announcement! What an honour it is to become the new Chair of Lincoln Business Club, taking over from the irreplaceable Nicola Ellwood. I have been a member of this club for over five years, and I love how we as a community support, encourage and champion each other. It is the people that come to our monthly meetings that make this club so special and I look forward to working with my wonderful new vice-chair, Rachael Hunt, in taking the club onwards into a bright and wonderful future.”
The success of the event was made possible through partnerships and sponsorships with Stokes, Fizzco, The Lincoln Distillery, eComOne, Austen Hempstead, Wright Vigar, Business Bollox, Optimum Safety, Ruddocks, Make An Entrance, Petaurum HR, Uptech Ltd and Sheila Stamp – Travel Counsellors.
