Great Saturday afternoon checking in with local business owners and getting some Christmas shopping done.

Our independent businesses are part of what makes Streatham Streatham.

They need our support even more than usual this winter #ShopLocal #SmallBusinessSaturday [1/10]
Balham Farmers’ Market is always a great place to go to pick up fresh & local produce.

It takes place every Saturday from 9am-1pm at Henry Cavendish Primary School - @Londonfarmers #SmallBusinessSaturday [2/10]
Shopping at Rootcraft who grow their own organic herbs in #StreathamHill

Everything about their products is sustainable, right down to the biodegradable pots #SmallBusinessSaturday [3/10]
Catching up at George’s Barbers, which must be one of the oldest businesses in the constituency.

Our hairdressers are really important community hubs #SmallBusinessSaturday [4/10]
Visiting businesses in the south of the constituency to talk to business owners like Memet about the challenges they’re facing with the double whammy of #COVID19 & #Brexit [5/10]
Now officially considering whether it’s time to buy an electric scooter down at Ahsan Scooters by Streatham Common.

This one has a fully rechargeable battery you can charge at home or work #sustainability #SmallBusinessSaturday [6/10]
Talking about how we can help make businesses more sustainable as we rebuild with @HealthierWitho1

Best peanut butter in South London (if I do say so myself) #SmallBusinessSaturday [7/10]
Really important to support artists and creative industries in #Streatham, who have been particularly hard hit by this pandemic and haven’t received the help they need.

Creative Soul sell some fantastic gifts produced by local artists #SmallBusinessSaturday [8/10]
And finally, a massive shout-out to all the independent gift shops in #Streatham that really come into their own at this time of year, like @PempamsieStore on #BrixtonHill... #SmallBusinessSaturday [9/10]
And the lovely @LarkLDN on #StreathamHill where I picked up this mug.

Realised the old one wasn’t exactly... appropriate for meetings 😬[10/10]
