Bruce MP visited Rode Hall Christmas Market on Small Business Saturday, 5th
December, to support local small businesses.
Fiona
met with local small businesses including, Ann Rogers, founder and producer of
Alsager Pottery, and with Carole Vestey of Woodside Apiaries of Rode Hall
Estate, Scholar Green which sells honey and candles from the bees it has had
for over 40 years.
Fiona said
“Small
Business Saturday is now in its third year, with hundreds of thousands of small
businesses participating. Its aim is to highlight small business success and to
encourage the UK to support small business. It was a pleasure to meet up on the
day with original, innovative and quality small businesses. Alsager Pottery
produce traditional English slipware platters and chargers which are hand
thrown in a small family workshop using local red clay and exporting all over
the world as well as available locally such as at the Salt Line Studio, Crewe
Road, Alsager. Woodside Apiaries sell their honey and candles locally at Little
Moreton Hall and at Tatton Hall and are first prize winners at the Nantwich Show.”
