MALDON town centre will be the scene of bargains galore tomorrow as the High Street gets ready for Small Business Saturday.

Some shops and businesses will be offering discounts on purchases throughout the day tomorrow (Saturday, 5 December) for the event.

Small Business Saturday has extra meaning this year, given the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on independent local shops as they try to make the most of what would usually be their busiest time of the year.

Maldon Business Board has provided a list of those with special offers, as follows:

Those offering a 10 per cent discount for the day:

• Willow & Fox

• Reeves

• Chic Petite - off all toys until Christmas

• Just the Thing

• The Hair Room - off retail products
