Meet the Chamber Executive Committee for 2020/2021

Every year at the AGM the Worthing & Adur Chamber of Commerce Executive Committee is elected.

The exec committee are all volunteers who give up their time and expertise to support and guide the Chamber for the year ahead. Each exec member has their own specialist area to oversee and a working group which also consist entirely of volunteers. They are always looking for more volunteers so if you are interested in getting more involved let us know! Email tracie@worthingandadurchamber.co.uk for more information.
