Principles of the Associate Model

This provides the framework for the relationship between the town and county Chamber. Where common goals and objectives are identified, Dorset Chamber will endeavour to support Associate Chambers in their activities. Associate Chambers may also be able to promote the services or efforts of Dorset Chamber in their particular locations. The Associated Chamber and Dorset Chamber will provide links to each other on their respective websites.

Associate Chambers will be invited to participate in the Quarterly Economic Survey and will promote to their members. Dorset Chamber will publish selected Associate Chamber/ member press releases/ news stories on our website and magazine ‘Dorset Business Focus’.The Associate Chamber should be properly constituted and governed appropriately.

Dorset Chamber is not responsible, nor does it accept any liability for, the constitution, regulation or actions of Associate Chambers or of any of the volunteers who support it.
