Supporting Business
We understand our members come from all different backgrounds. To ensure we fully support all BECBC members, we also run specialist sector groups, which focus on key areas of business:
Nuclear Group
The BECBC Nuclear Group was created as a dedicated cluster of members who work within the nuclear industry.
It is the ideal group for anyone wanting to build relationships and business in the nuclear supply chain. Heavily endorsed by Sellafield Ltd and LLWR, the group usually meets 4 times a year to network and share industry updates.
Want to get involved? Could you host an event at your premises to demonstrate your work?
Learn More"We joined BECBC as we wanted to continue to build our presence in the nuclear sector and expand this into working with Sellafield. We found the connections made through networking invaluable."
Gary Thornton, MD, The Spencer Group
Net Zero Group
With the clean energy agenda climbing up the political ladder this group was created to help members explore opportunities in the clean energy supply chain, and collaborate in their own ambitions to reduce carbon emissions.
This group aims to meet 4 times a year and share news in between of supply chain opportunities, and how members are achieving their carbon reduction goals.
Want to get involved? How about host a meeting, or share your news of your work in the clean energy sector.

Stuart Harrison, owner Solar Flare
Business Support Group (BSG)
This group was set up to bring together a diverse range of businesses offering expertise, products and services.
Whilst many of them do work across the clean energy supply chain, most expand much wider across other sectors too offering a great chance to collaborate, network and learn more about wider opportunities. This group meets quarterly with an expo on an annual basis to showcase talent.
Want to get involved? Come to the meetings and feel free to suggest a working group topic.

Ewen Alcorn, Director, MacArthur Recruitment
Business and Schools Collaboration Project (BSCP)
This is an award winning collaboration project whereby the Inspira team and volunteers from BECBC members, sponsors and supporters go into schools offering a wide variety of activities that meet the needs of our local children ensuring fair access to local employer engagement for all students across the Allerdale and Copeland area.
Want to get involved? Go to one of the school engagement events and help demonstrate to local students the opportunities available to them.

Meet The Team
BECBC is run by a Board of 8 volunteers from across the energy industry and its supply chain, all bringing their own set of skills and knowledge to the membership. They are supported by a small team of professional consultants.
There is also a BECBC Shadow Board of 10 young professionals (all volunteers), formed to bring disruption to the norm and challenge BECBC to think outside the box.
The BECBC Sector Groups are led by volunteers, all experts from within the membership.
