West Norfolk Branch
Welcome to the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) West Norfolk Branch web pages. The Branch covers the areas of Kings Lynn and West Norfolk Borough and Breckland District Councils and has over 830 small business members.
The FSB is all about giving a coordinated and powerful voice to small businesses, so it is really important that you tell us about the issues affecting your business and that you contribute to the current campaigns by telling us any relevant information that you hear about.
Is your business affected by the recent DEFRA drought announcement?
If so, the FSB West Norfolk Branch would like to hear from you. The FSB Chairman, John Walker, is interested in doing site visits now Defra has announced a drought from early Spring. We would like to hear from members who are currently going to suffer badly.
If your business is affected, please complete our online form to tell us your story.
FSB West Norfolk Branch Supports The "Say Yes to Better Broadband" Campaign
FSB West Norfolk Branch is asking its members to support the "Say Yes to Better Broadband" campaign by registering an interest here: http://sayyestobroadband.co.uk
If you own or run a retail establishment why not email the Better Broadband project at: BetterBroadbandforNorfolkProject@norfolk.gov.uk (or call 01603 222834) and request some prepaid registration leaflets that you can hand out to your customers to show your support for the campaign.
This is a real opportunity for FSB West Norfolk Branch Members to demonstrate the power of our membership by lending force to the campaign. If all of our members join us we can more than double the strength of the campaign."
It is important to put your support to this campaign because superfast broadband will add significant improvements to your business and private life. Imagine being able to have video conferencing with six people interacting on a screen in front of you, streaming television programmes to different PC's around the home without the dreaded stop to upload data.
