Monday 17 to Sunday 23 is Membership Impact Week in JCI UK.  We'll be celebrating our amazing members with a series of blogs from members of chambers all around the country.  You'll hear about their experiences as a member, why they enjoy being a member and how being a member of JCI has benefitted them.

There will be fantastic events going on in our local chambers and we encourage potential members to come along and give JCI a go.  Some chambers are running special membership offers during the week - ask your local chamber for details.  Some of the events taking place include:
