Meet the Sponsor: Federation of Small Business 11 Oct

So you’re one of the UK’s 5 million small business owners – one of 45,000 alone in Lincolnshire. Whether you’re a sole trader, self-employed or have a team, the business world, politics and society have ways of throwing curveballs at you, every single day. That can be a stressful, lonely, expensive and busy place to be – but where would the country and county be without you?

Because of all the issues swirling around that affect your productivity and prosperity, the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) has – for the last 50 years – been standing up and speaking up for independent businesses like yours. We influence Government, from local councillors and MPs, right up to the Prime Minister, to create the right changes for you.

While we’re at it, we help over 150,000 SMEs to navigate all the things you have to do as a small business owner. From tax to GDPR, from occupational health to jury duty via business banking and legal issues, we’re here to help you deal with the scary stuff and find new opportunities, freeing you up to focus on doing what you do best.

If you feel like you could do with saving some time, money and stress, head to stand 9 at the Lincolnshire Business Showcase to talk to your local FSB team – Katrina, Jackie, Steven and Neil – to find out more about all the help open to you from as little as 55p per day.

We’re here to help, so let’s see how much we can do for you right away.
