Why Go Local? The Benefits of Choosing a Local Flooring Specialist
When it comes to updating your home’s flooring, it’s tempting to head straight to a national chain or browse endless online options. But have you ever considered the advantages of choosing a local flooring specialist like Teddington Carpets? Here’s why going local can make all the difference for your home and your community.
What is Small Business Saturday?
Small Business Saturday celebrates the UK's much-loved 5.45 million small businesses and encourages the nation to show their support, particularly by spending and shopping small.
Small Business Saturday takes place on the first Saturday in December but is not just a date. It’s a year-round national movement to spotlight the small businesses that make a big difference to our communities and economy. From independent retailers to local service providers, the goal is simple: help small businesses thrive.
We believe in the power of small. Small is personal. Small is resilient. Small is at the heart of every neighbourhood. Through Small Business Saturday, we travel the length and breadth of the country to share stories, amplify voices and celebrate the people who make small business mighty. The result is a massive showing of support, love and celebration for the Nation's Favourite Businesses.
