Thumbs up for Small Businesses

Independence Day

Thanks to a great linky from Karen Jones ‏over at http://allabouttheboysdesignerclothes.blogspot.co.uk/2012/03/2nd-independents-day-supporting.html I have a great prompt each month to shout about some great small businesses I come across on the Web. 

On My Blog for You:

I have an open invitation to any small business aligned to Coombe Mill to advertise free of charge on my blog. There are 3 categories:

1. Local Cornish businesses helpful to our holiday makers

2. Products or services for parents and young children

3. Parenting blogs offering friendly helpful information.

I choose I each week to promote on the front of my blog and tweet, please come and join up with me here: http://www.coombemill.com/blog/adverts/ 

Tomorrow is Special

Tomorrow is the first #SBS meet up from Theo Paphitis of Dragon's Den and as a proud winner back in October last year I am braving the fuel crises and making the Journey from Cornwall to Birmingham with fellow winner Karen Davey to meet some lovely business people I interact with here on the blog and on Twitter. 

So here are some of the people and Businesses I am hoping to meet tomorrow:

littlebigsports with their lovely looking site http://www.littlebigsports.co.uk/ offering great outdoor sports wear and equipment for Kids, perfect kit for a holiday at Coombe Mill

Lights Out Blinds Anne has a great concept in portable black out blinds. We support her Business here at Coombe Mill offering her lovely blinds for parents on holiday with us. You can buy the blinds from her site directly: http://www.lightsoutblinds.com/ 

Jane & Neil at http://www.kidzoutdoors.com/shop/

They offer great outdoor play equipment and more for Kids. A lovely site and lovely people I am looking forward to meeting. Another great match with Coombe Mill 

♥ Martina ♥ at http://www.mycraftycandles.co.uk/ She can do the most creative things with Candles for the home or as gifts and is coming from the #SBS event tomorrow to Coombe Mill on holiday!

A Special Mention

Bondie Bird who has the gorgeous Playwrap designed from birth for babies. A wonderful 3 in 1 devise perfect for Mums and Dads to take anywhere to keep babies happy. We are proud to have one to borrow at Coombe Mill, just ask when you arrive. You can see more about the Play wrap on their site here http://www.bondiebird.com/. I hope they will be at the next #SBS gathering as I would love to meet them.

Do have a look at all the above who are all working hard with their small businesses.
