Here at Club Hub UK we are massive advocates of supporting small businesses. According to the Children’s Activities Association there are over 40,000 children’s activity providers in the UK. Many are small businesses and they rely on their customers to keep them running. You can find many of those children activity providers listed on our directory. If you have children or know children who may benefit from after-school classes, clubs, attractions, events, holiday clubs why not take a look to see if anything looks of interest to you right now and let us know.
Small-business owners are very passionate about what they do. They play an important role in supporting their local communities. When it comes to showing your support for small businesses, it’s important to do so, and not just to help them gain revenue and stay operational.
Small businesses are central to communities across the UK. They make up over 99percent of all businesses in the UK. Not only do they contribute to the local economy, but they also support local communities.
Many small businesses are still feeling the impact from COVID-19 and so small businesses need your help more than ever. It’s had an enormous impact both financially and mentally amongst small business owners. A recent FSB study reported that 250,000 companies are at risk of collapse in the UK. You do not need to dig deep or contribute by giving your money. There are so many other ways you can help.
Here are some amazing reasons listed why to support small businesses:
Here at Club Hub we try our hardest to follow, like, comment, share and interact with as many small businesses we can on our social media channels.
So how can you help support small businesses in the UK on social media?
Simply follow. It can give small businesses a real boost when you follow or like the page of a small business. It not only helps them to connect with you better, but it also allows them to reach a wider audience. Whether it’s on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter.
By liking a small businesses posts, it allows them to see which content people like. It also helps them extend reach of people who may not like or follow the page, so it’s a great way to help them gain new followers. Another bonus is when you like their posts, their content is more likely to com up in your own newsfeed. Helping you engage and see their content that may benefit and interest you.
By sharing posts, you help advocate and spread their word, when other people see that you’ve shared something. It makes the business seem more reputable and builds trust, a quick share really helps.
You don’t have to write an essay It doesn’t even have to be anything long-winded; just an emoji will sometimes do! When you comment, it allows the algorithm to help show the post in other people’s newsfeeds, which means a small business then has a chance to showcase its product or service to many more people. It helps grow their network and get the word out about who they are and what they do, all because you commented. Feels good, doesn’t it?
By tagging friends in content created by a small business, you’re essentially creating a digital form of word of mouth, which is worth its weight in gold to a small business. Letting your friends know this business exists not only helps your friends out who may be interested in whatever products or services they’re offering. It helps the small business get the message out to more people. And all for free!
Leaving reviews is a fantastic way to support small businesses in the UK. It doesn’t take long at all for you to do, yet it can make a huge difference. It can help increase their reach on social media and support parents and children’s activity providers across the country!

In today’s digital world, small businesses must embrace reviews. This means it’s important to ask your clients or customers to leave reviews, keeping a close eye on them (monitoring your reputation), taking the time to respond to customers, and sharing your best reviews on social media.
