Small Business Saturday
4th December 2021

"Small Business Saturday is all about shopping at our local Independent retailers, not just on December 4th but all year round. I hope that the people of Gosport, Lee on the Solent, Stubbington and Hill Head get behind the campaign and shop small!"

Caroline Dinenage, MP for Gosport, Stubbington, Lee-on-the-Solent & Hill Head

Children's Christmas Trail Competition

Christmas Lantern Trail

It's back! The ever popular Lantern Trail Competition throughout November and December. Look for the stickers in shop windows in either Stoke Road or Gosport High Street (they can be a mix of both if you like) - write down which windows you saw them in and put the completed form in one of the entry boxes in either the Discovery Centre, Stoke Gallery or the Town Hall. We will choose four winners the week before Christmas

	Shop Small Extract from a Gosport Borough Council press release: Gosport Borough Council is actively encouraging local residents to shop local, and businesses to source local to help local businesses, the local economy and the community • Research shows that for every £100 spent in a local business, £68 is likely to stay in the community helping the local economy • Independent shops create a distinctive and diverse shopping experience. You might be surprised by the range of products, services and gifts available in your local shops • More people shopping locally will not only help existing independent shops to continue trading but also encourage more local businesses to start up—you will be helping to sustain and create local jobs • Local businesses support a wide range of community causes. Supporting local shops, therefore, provides a financial benefit for your local community • Small businesses are very important to a town, providing jobs and services, so residents are encouraged to support them whenever possible. You can find out more about providers located at our main local shopping centres by visiting them physically or virtually at: • Gosport High Street www.gosporttowncentre.co.uk • Stoke Road www.stokeroadgosport.co.uk • Lee-on-the-Solent: www.leeonthesolent.uk But let’s not forget the other small shopping centres across Gosport, the lifeblood of our communities, as are small businesses everywhere.
