I am Maria Humphries and the owner of the Company, I have always promoted Networking at all of my events

I have recently joined 4Networking as Area Leader of Northwich, Warrington, Knutsford and Runcorn, and I am so impressed!

Great team, great networking and great fun.

Good grief, will I have enough space for this? Born in Warrington, we emigrated to California when I was 7 years old, so did the whole Junior High stuff, learned how to say The Pledge of Eligience in Spanish. Parents started a Restaurant from a plot of land, but then they came back to England 8 years later. So there I am with a full American accent going to my last year of High School in Appleton. Got married, moved to Northwich, worked in hotel management, had two absolutely beautiful children, got divorced after 11 years, totally broke and brought the children up by myself with out any help or financial support, worked full time for the Bank as a Business Manager. Put my two children through University. Took voluntary redundancy a few years ago, and thought what on earth have I done, had an inspiration of light and decided that as I am such a people person and very organised (or try to be) I would become a wedding planner, I then started to organise my own Wedding Fayre's, and although I don't have that monthly payment going into my account at the end of the month, and things do get a bit scary sometimes, I am having the time of my life. No one to answer to and if it all goes wrong, I only have myself to blame. Went to a 4Networking meeting last year, loved the friendliness and the support and the easy going style, and thought this suits me. And now I am an Area Leader for 4Networking Northwich, Knutsford, Warrington and Runcorn. I never realised just how much help and support was out there, I have a fantastic Regional Leader and a fantastic Team. 

So now I am in a good place in my life, I am so busy, and the little person in the 'home office' who used to feel very lonely and thought I was the only person in the world working for myself, with my two cats as company, is getting out there and having a ball. House on the market, want to move back to my roots Stockton Heath/Appleton near Warrington as I have family and friends there, still single though.....

and that's all folks.............for now. Mx
