Small Business Saturday is a grassroots initiative to encourage shoppers to support small indie businesses and shop local.
Independent shopping not only supports the local economy but offers you the chance to champion someone's livelihood rather than a big corporation.
Burford used to be the norm, a High Street packed full of beautiful independent retailers who not only offer local employment and boost the local economy but are part of the fabric of the local and wider community.
Burford High Street is now the exception. If you live in Burford or have visited in the last week I am sure you will agree with me the Burford High Street is looking its very festive finest and offers a unique experience that cannot be found anywhere else.
I am proud to own two businesses on Burford High Street and I am very passionate about the products and services we offer but I am also proud to be a part of the community of shop keepers on the High Street and part of the wider community of people who work, live and visit Burford.
Between a late Budget, new governmental initiatives and the somewhat inclement weather November and December sales are not where they need to be so if you are in a position to shop local and support us we would be very grateful.
Books and the gift of reading are the very best gifts you can give this Christmas and at Little Madhatter Emporium our family games and toys start at £5. We have lots of ideas for stockings and Secret Santa and are always very delighted to match you with the perfect book, if it's not in stock we can order it for you and orders arrive within 48 ours. We are also very happy to help with wrapping and we can store your gifts until you are ready to send them to Santa.
If you prefer to buy your books online then please use our website, today if you buy a book online you will be entered into a draw to win £250 so please think big and shop small and know you will be making a difference.
Many thanks and very best wishes.
Kim and the Madhatter Team.
