Your business might be ablaze with innovation, but don’t let it go up in smoke!
South Yorkshire Fire & Rescue, in conjunction with
the Federation of Small Businesses, is staging a free
business liaison breakfast at 8:30am on Tuesday 5
October. Latest published local government statistics
show that the fire and rescue services attend over
10,000 serious fires annually at business premises.
This not only has obvious life-threatening
implications, but is ruinous for the nation‟s economic
wellbeing, livelihoods and jobs.

The FSB is urging the Government to refrain from selling its shareholdings in
nationalised and capitalised banks to other banks, promote financial intermediaries to
viable small businesses unable to access finance, introduce a series of regional capital
markets and community investment trusts and turn the Post Office into either a solely
state owned bank or as mutual or trustee bank for small firms by utilising the Post Office
Network.
Consumer caution sees only small rise on high street as new car sales slide
There is fresh evidence that
anxiety about looming job cuts
and tax rises was making
consumers wary of overstretching
themselves, with official figures
for August showing a conservative
pick-up in trade on the high street
but a sharp decline in new car
sales.
The British Retail Consortium said
UK retail sales increased 1% on a
like-for-like basis during August –
compared with a 0.1% decline in
the same month a year ago.
Separately, the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders reported that 55,305 new
cars were registered last month, 17.5% fewer than the previous year when consumers
were able to claim a £2,000 discount by scrapping an old model.
The surgery will take place in the store cafe at Costco Wholesale, Parkway Drive,
Sheffield, S9 4WU each Monday morning from 10.15–11.15am (register at the enquiry
desk).
If you cannot attend at this time, ring 0114 261 7132 for an alternative appointment.
The FSB guidance surgery may provide the perfect answer to that pressing problem that
has been causing you sleepless nights!
