If your business has already invested in Partner Membership of Buckinghamshire Business First, one member of your team can become part of the Peer Ngage programme at a cost of £120, to be paid in full before commencing the programme. There is no option to pay this £120 monthly. Should you decide to cancel your Partner membership, the full cost of the programme will be payable as the discounted place would no longer be included with your package. For more information on this option, email PeerNgage@bbf.uk.com.

Yes. Depending on the format of the groups, we can accommodate more than one member of a business. The cost of participation for each additional member of the same business will be £500 + VAT.

By joining the Peer Ngage programme, you are committing your time and engagement to the group and your own self-development. Dates are published at the start of the programme to enable forward planning. No refunds will be given for non-attendance and no substitution of team members will be allowed in order to join the collaboration sessions. Members of your team may be invited to attend speaker sessions in your absence, in agreement with your fellow group members. 

We request a cancellation notice period of 3 months to withdraw from the Peer Ngage programme. If paying monthly, you may cancel your direct debit agreement after the 3-month notice period. If you paid upfront, we would refund you 1/12 of the total amount for each of the remaining months. If you wish to retain your Partner Membership, we will set up a new payment plan. Please email membership@bbf.uk.com for more details.
