BFA Hub Meeting

Feeling a bit out on a limb? Trade a bit slow? Need some inspiring, or just a good chat?

BFA Hub meetings have been designed to create local networking opportunities for the industry.  Demonstrations, business seminars amd a chance to chat and socialise over drinks and a light buffet style meal.

Demonstrations at our Hub meetings are practical and aimed at retail, with a focus on giving you ideas on designs that will sell.

Hub Meetings are FREE to BFA members. Non-members are welcome at £10 per head (and if you join the BFA on the night, we'll deduct £10 from your membership fee, making the meeting free!)

The next meeting will be held here at Peter H Smith - at 6.30pm on Thursday November 26th - with a demonstration by Joe Massie (RHS Chelsea Young Florist 2009 & Interflora Future Designer).

This Hub will also host qualifying heats for the RHS Chelsea Florist and Young Florist of the Year 2010.  Entry to the competition is open to any florist working in or owning a retail florist shop, or who is a student or tutor at an approved floristry school or recognised college.

To enter you will need to submit a piece of floristry, following the relevant competition schedule, into one of the regional qualifying heats to be held at the BFA Hub meetings.  The highest scoring entries from each category will qualify for a place at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show.  The entry fee for the competition is £10 (charged for heat entry only, there is no charge to enter the final).
