“Celebrating Local Life” in Cheshire’s Golden Triangle​
​
Who is CGT Networking?
​
My name is Jacqui Priestley — I’m the owner and editor of Cheshire’s Golden Triangle Magazine, and the founder of the new, forward-thinking, modern, proactive, and inclusive networking group CGT Networking.
​
I live in Wilmslow — my family live and work here, my grandchildren go to school here, my friends are here, I socialise here… you get the idea! Local people, residents, and business owners are my people, and I truly care about them.
​
So when I talk about supporting our local community, this really is my community. As you read these FAQs, I hope it becomes clear why my team and I set up CGT Networking — and what it means to us.
​
​
What is the group’s vision?
​
Our vision is for CGT Networking to become the go-to community for high-performing local business owners and entrepreneurs based in and around Cheshire’s Golden Triangle.
​
We aim to support one another through genuine collaboration, sharing real business opportunities that benefit our wider community — not just through words, but through action.
​
​
​
Where will CGT Networking meet?
Our first few meetings are already organised for December, in Wilmslow and Prestbury.
​
Future events are planned for Mottram St Andrews, Handforth, Alderley Edge, Mobberley, Knutsford, and other Wilmslow venues. There’s so much to look forward to!
​
​
Is this a membership organisation, or can you ‘pay as you go’? What are the costs?
​
You don’t need to become a member — there’s no membership fee.
​
Simply keep an eye on our website and socials for upcoming meetings. Once you find a date and location that suits you, just register online, choose your meal, and pay the £25 fee, which includes everything.
​
It really is that simple!
​
​
Will there be any additional costs?
​
No — there are no hidden charges and nothing extra to pay.
​
This group exists to support our local Golden Triangle business community — not to make a profit. The real value will come when members begin to pass genuine business referrals and collaborate for mutual success — one of CGT Networking’s core goals.
​
​
Will there be exclusivity for certain business types or industries?
​
No — CGT Networking is inclusive, collaborative, and supportive.
​
Rather than excluding anyone, we welcome all local business owners. There’s plenty of opportunity within our affluent Golden Triangle community for everyone to thrive.
​
We don’t believe in “locking out” our neighbours — we believe in working together.
​
​
Will there be targets or attendance expectations?
​
Oh my goodness — no!
CGT Networking is all about Celebrating Local Life in Cheshire’s Golden Triangle — enjoying the connections, opportunities, and sense of community we share.
So, just watch this space… because 2026 will bring a whole new wave of activity to our Golden Triangle.
This is just the start! Jacqui x
