The FSB lobbies on behalf of small businesses and self employed people. With a National Press and Parliamentary Office in Westminster, the SW Policy Unit and a network of local Bristol & Gloucestershire Branches, the FSB is well equiped  to represent members concerns at both local and National level.

 

Lobbying starts by influencing local matters such as planning, economic development, tourism and retail support, which can be taken up to County or South West level and then up to National level.

 

The Members Lobbying Group is designed to deal with all the different issues affecting members from across a vast range of different types of small business. The Members Lobbying Group meets occasionally, but tends to communicate mostly via email and telephone.

 

If you are interested in getting involved, or have an issue to bring forward, please visit the Lobbying Contacts page. The members listed there are active in that area and would welcome to hear your concerns or explain how you can get involved.
