Small Business Saturday aims to get people to support local businesses and help them as they go into another challenging winter

The contribution of small businesses to local communities across the UK is being celebrated this weekend as Small Business Saturday returns to the UK on 7 December.

Convenience, customer experience and help for local charities and vulnerable people are some of the top benefits small businesses are seen to bring, according to the campaign's survey of 2,000 members of the public. “Public support is absolutely vital for boosting small businesses across the UK this weekend and beyond. Many are facing extended economic challenges and need greater support and confidence to recover and keep going.”

Small Business Saturday is an annual campaign with a mission to support and celebrate the UK’s 5.5 million small businesses, encouraging people to 'shop local' and support small firms in their communities. On Small Business Saturday, customers across the UK go out and support all types of small businesses, both online and in bricks-and-mortar stores; from independent shops and restaurants to small service and b2b based businesses like accountants and plumbers. Many small businesses celebrate the day by hosting events, offering promotions, and collaborating with other local businesses.
