Vision

Born or Made is driven to bring businesses together within local communities. This builds community resilience and will have a lasting impact on the area's sustainability, confidence, and growth.

Mission

The proverb "Go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together" is not just a saying, but a belief we hold dear at Born or Made.

Formed in 2024, Born or Made is a local community networking membership group that fortnightly brings like-minded local businesses, charities, not-for-profits, freelancers, solopreneurs, and young people together to connect and share skills, problems, solutions, referrals, advice, and support. The glue of the members is that they were all Born or Made in the local area, meaning that members collaborate on projects that directly deliver money to the local economy, ensuring a thriving future for all.

At Born or Made, we believe in looking 'outside of the room' and encouraging introductions to opportunities outside the network.

Referrals from Born or Made ensure the quality of work, a qualified and experienced business, charity, freelancer or solopreneur, and open doors to new possibilities for growth and development that come back to the local community.
