Saturday 2nd December is Small Business Saturday, a day which highlights and celebrates small businesses and encourages customers to support them by shopping local. The Hexham constituency is home to a multitude of successful small businesses which are a vital part of the community and economy, and in recognition of this Hexham MP Guy Opperman has recently launched his Small Business Awards to celebrate the best small businesses in Tynedale and Ponteland. Many small businesses across the area have already been nominated, including the Black Bull Matfen, Shorts of Corbridge, Louise Hunter and Associates, Cogito Books and Finale Shoes.
Nominations are still open though and Guy is keen to hear about your favourite local small businesses, so to nominate and recognise a great small business in the Hexham constituency, either fill in a nomination card that you can find in small businesses across Tynedale and Ponteland or complete the online nomination form here-
