FSB sets out plan to help high street businesses to thrive

7 DAYS AGO - A freeze on business rates, increased free town centre parking and safeguards around access to cash and banking, must be put in place to help struggling businesses on the high street.The burden of rising rates bills and ever-increasing rents, coupled with soaring employment costs and pressure from online retailers and out of town shopping centres, are all creating a perfect storm in our town centres.
FSB has set out new recommendations in five key areas, which should be targeted by policymakers to provide an urgent lifeline for the sector in England.
Create fairer business rates bills for high streets and beyond
Build an easy and simple system for businesses to appeal rates bills
Abolish the rates relief rule that penalises small business expansion into additional premises
Create more free parking and invest in the maintenance of local road networks, which support local high streets and their customers
Put in place measures to safeguard access to cash and banking services

Women owned businesses contribute a staggering £105bn to UK economy, but female entrepreneurialism in manufacturing and other high growth sectors remains more elusive

7 DAYS AGO - New research published by FSB, launched at Facebook Community Boost, reveals an estimated 40% increase in UK economic contribution and a 26% increase in employment generated by women owned businesses.
A quarter of private sector employment (23.85%) is now calculated to be generated by women owned and women led businesses.
Diversity in manufacturing and higher growth sectors is still a challenge, with a reduction in the proportion of women owned firms in these sectors.
Women are increasingly becoming the job creators and growth drivers in the UK, according to new research from the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB).
A new report, 'Supporting Women's Enterprise in the UK: The Economic Case', shows that women owned businesses are now calculated to contribute a staggering £105bn to the UK economy, an increase of 40% since comprehensive data was last collected and analysed. This equates to women owned businesses contributing £36k Gross Value Add (GVA) for each person they employ, 6.3% Collapse
