Old Bexley, Sidcup, and Welling are home to more than 3,600 small businesses and traders, employing thousands of people locally. However, they face significant challenges, from soaring shoplifting to rising employers' national insurance costs, which threaten our local economy.
Louie French MP has launched a survey of small businesses and traders to understand their priorities and challenges. The survey results will inform his work in Parliament and local campaigns, including tackling neighbourhood crime, supporting our high streets and fighting Labour's taxes on businesses.
If you are a trader or own a small business employing fewer than 50 people, complete the survey today and have your say on the national policies and local issues impacting you.
