IPSWICH BREAKFAST CLUB 💖☕️

Next Wednesday 14th at Ipswich Sports Club we will be meeting for our second ever Ipswich Breakfast Club and our very own Lucie from Lucie Selby | Brand Designer has a very exciting chat and something of an announcement about her business all rolled in to one. Come join the best most buzzy small biz community around and have a morning of connection with your people, because self employment doesn’t have to be lonely!

Walk this way for…

Good vibes, business chat, meaningful connections and allllllllways bringing the fun. 💕

We’re Lucie & Charlie, two local business owners who believe that building your business and connecting with your community is one of the best ways to grow, learn and feel a little less like you’re doing it all on your own.

We created The Hook to bring brilliant people together, make genuine connections and make sure we’re having the best time while we’re at it 🙌🏻

Want to come and join in? Head to the link in our bio for more info…

And a BIG thank you to Julia from for another banging reel! We love you! 💕

Big love,
Charlie & Lucie xx

We are so grateful and excited to host Catherine and if you find the talk useful you will be able to find out more about her more comprehensive workshop on the topic which is coming up soon!

Ipswich… you understood the assignment 💖

We had our very first Ipswich Breakfast Club yesterday and WHAT a room.

New faces, familiar faces, brilliant conversations, plenty of coffee and exactly the kind of energy we hoped we’d bring with us.

Turns out The Hook feels pretty good in Suffolk!

Thank you to everyone who came and made our first Ipswich Breakfast Club such a good one. We can’t wait to do it all again next month.

And a BIG thank you to Julia from for capturing all the content for us again. Honestly, how will we manage without you?! LOLZ 😂

We’d love you to join us at the next Ipswich event on Wednesday 14th October. Link in bio to grab your spot.

See you there? 🥐☕️

As always, big love,

Charlie & Lucie xx
