Ruth has also been invited to go to 10 Downing Street as part of the event. She said: “The 100 businesses all get invited to Downing Street so I am going there on Friday 5 December so I am really looking forward to that.”

Promoting Small Business Saturday, which takes place on Saturday 6 December, Ruth said: “I think people should shop with small businesses not only on Small Business Saturday but every day because they care. My clients matter to me and it is because of them that I have a business so I really do have an affection for them.”
