Your Chamber. Your Voice. Your Executive Committee.
The Wellingborough & North Northamptonshire Chamber of Commerce is proudly run by businesspeople, not box-tickers.
Our Executive Committee is made up of professionals from across North Northamptonshire who volunteer their time, energy, and experience to help drive the Chamber forward. We represent a wide range of industries and backgrounds—but we’re united by a shared goal: to support, connect, and advocate for local businesses.

The Executive Committee is responsible for:
- Setting the strategic direction of the Chamber
