Today marks an important opportunity to celebrate and support our local businesses. From takeaway shops and local tradespeople to cafés, tattoo parlours, and other independent enterprises, these businesses are the backbone of our high streets. They provide jobs, services, and help make our area distinctive.
Small Business Saturday, taking place today, is a nationwide initiative that shines a spotlight on the hard work and dedication of small business owners and entrepreneurs.
Richard is encouraging local residents to shop local and use the fantastic services available right on our doorstep.

Small Business Saturday is a chance to celebrate and support our local businesses- whether that’s grabbing a coffee from your favourite café, booking an appointment with your local hairdresser, or picking up a takeaway from a family-run restaurant. Every time we shop local, we help keep jobs in our community and ensure our high streets remain vibrant and welcoming.
So today, and every day, let’s support our local businesses and help them thrive.
