On Saturday, it was Small Business Saturday and I'd like to say thank you and show my support to small businesses which our local communities rely on.
We all know it is an incredibly tough time for small businesses at the moment, but we can all come together to help lighten the load this Christmas.
The run up to Christmas is a great opportunity to celebrate and promote the hundreds of small businesses in Worcestershire and lend them our support this festive season.
We have such a fantastic variety of small and independent businesses that have made great efforts to ensure they can reopen safely now we're in tier 2. I was able to visit businesses in Broadway, Badsey and Evesham (I shall be visiting more small businesses in Droitwich and the northern part of the constituency in the coming weeks).
To help support our local businesses, you can go online, shopping, sharing a great review, or promoting local businesses on social media, or use their takeaway or click and collect services and spread the word.
