What is Big Voice and what does it do?

Big Voice is a free to join, online community for our members. By commenting or responding to one of our surveys, members give us the evidence we need to take to politicians at all levels, across the UK and in Brussels. This evidence is used to support our lobbying and help shape the laws affecting small businesses.

Working with Verve

We’ve commissioned Verve, an independent market research company, to undertake our Big Voice polls, surveys and discussions. Verve also manage our online community.
