How is Small Business Saturday funded?

The grassroots campaign is run by Small Is Big CIC, a community interest company that is not-for-profit, existing only to serve the interests of small businesses. We have a number of fantastic supporters who help us to promote the campaign and some who help with the day to day running costs.

Small business Saturday UK would like to say a huge thank you the following supporters:
