Franchisee Ruth Rood

"Ruth's WIBN is a must if you're a woman in business. Her groups are unbelievably supportive, and friendly, and everyone has a genuine interest in helping others move forward in their business. Can't recommend it highly enough!"

Louisea Byamukama, WIBN Chingford

Ruth Rood

Hello, my name is Ruth Rood and I’m pleased to meet you. I’m married with four grown up children and a growing brood of adorable grandchildren. I’ve always loved cats and have three grey British Shorthairs (although one is long haired but that’s another story!)

I visited a WIBN meeting in 2007 and was so impressed that I bought a Franchise then and there. I’ve had the amazing privilege of watching members and their businesses flourish over the years and the overriding essence of each group is the huge respect the members have for each other.

Supporting local businesses has always been very important to me and whatever you want and need on a business or personal level, there is a WBN member who can help.

Whether you are a seasoned networker or just dipping your toe in the water, you are sure of a warm welcome – come along and give us a try at one of our Essex Groups (Loughton, Woodford, Harlow or Gidea Park) or one of our East London Groups (Chingford or Wanstead).
