Shoppers are being urged to support local businesses on Armley Town Street tomorrow.
Saturday is Small Business Saturday – and Leeds West MP Rachel Reeves and Armley councillor Alice Smart are urging local shoppers to turn out in Town Street tomorrow and support local traders.
Now in its third year in the UK, Small Business Saturday originated in the US, where it was launched by American Express to raise the profile of smaller retailers.
