Chamber continues to grow with increased membership B
arnsley & Rotherham Chamber kicked off quarter one of 2019 with two new patrons and 54 new members.
The Chamber is continuously striving to
develop relationships with businesses across Barnsley and Rotherham, as well as developing their exiting member relationships, resulting in a 90% retention rate. Chartered surveying practice, Burgess
Commercial and recycling company, Russell Richardson & Sons have become the latest businesses to join the Chamber’s Patronage offering. Burgess Commercial was founded in January
2009 by Paul Burgess and Neil Keally at the height of the global financial crisis, the experienced surveyors drew on their extensive knowledge of the commercial property market to provide a comprehensive range of commercial property services including overseeing sales, leases, property management, rent reviews and valuations, aimed specifically at the South Yorkshire market. Neil Keally, Director of Burgess Commercial,
said: “At the time we launched the business, the property bubble had well and truly burst, the
banks were being bailed out and Britain was facing its most serious recession since the 1930s. We knew from the outset that it was a difficult time to launch a new business, but throughout our business journey we’ve worked closely with the Barnsley & Rotherham Chamber and felt we were well positioned to help others access specialist commercial property advice. We felt becoming a patron of the Chamber was a fitting way of celebrating the tenth anniversary of our business.” Russell Richardson, which
was founded in 1978, is responsible for helping businesses dispose of confidential waste including document shredding, electronic media destruction and IT recycling, as well as document archiving. The company has been an active member of Barnsley & Rotherham Chamber since 2015 and during that time have supported a number of Chamber-led activities. Emma Moorhouse, Marketing Manager at Russell Richardson, said: “Since joining Barnsley
‘The Chamber is continuously
striving to develop relationships with businesses across Barnsley and Rotherham’
& Rotherham Chamber in 2015 our membership has undoubtedly helped us to grow as a company and has raised our profile in the region. Our level of involvement with the Chamber has naturally evolved to becoming a patron and we’re excited to continue and strengthen this relationship, working with the team to build on this further.” Shane Young, Membership Manager of the Chamber, said: “We have been working closely with both Burgess Commercial and Russell Richardson & Sons for several
years, in which both have supported the Chamber through membership and events. I’m
delighted that both Neil and Emma have seen the benefits of developing the
relationship and I’m looking forward to working with both companies on this journey.” Barnsley & Rotherham Chamber now holds 18
patron businesses, and a membership of over 1,100 businesses across the South Yorkshire region.
