A networking group for enterprising women in Sussex has launched a web site to provide information online.
The Sussex Women's Alternative Networking (Swan) group site (www.theswangroup. co.uk) includes features, resources, directories and forums for members.
It also has a market section which can be used to advertise or to offer "contras" - services or goods in exchange for something of similar value.
The informal group, which was established in 2001, meets monthly at venues throughout Sussex to make contacts, socialise and develop business opportunities.
It attracts women from a variety of sectors, from marketing managers and small business owners to artists and hoteliers.
