As we are all aware, the UK high street is in a very different state now to what it was 15 years ago or so. With many internet giants contributing to the closure of certain high street stores and small businesses suffering as the recession took it's toll, this is the day for awareness of shopping local and supporting businesses from small online stores to your local corner shop.
County Councils up and down the UK are showing their support by putting on events in town centers and offering free car parking to attract a crowd.
The UK site: http://www.smallbusinesssaturdayuk.com will be sharing tips and advice on how to grow small independent businesses and across social media.
So get involved and help support small businesses or promote your own this Saturday! All info can be downloaded here
Boxed Beauty will also be getting involved this Small Business Saturday and offering a special discount off selected items! Check out our website tomorrow to see what's happening!
