A CELEBRITY business woman and star of Dragon’s Den will be calling on Reading residents to support local businesses when she makes an appearance at The Oracle this Friday.

Sarah Willingham will be speaking at a pop-up stand alongside the CEO of Yell.com, Richard Hanscott, a part of a nationwide tour to encourage the British public to support small local businesses.

Sarah said: “I’m thrilled to be working with Yell on such a meaningful campaign. From my many years of experience working both within and alongside small businesses, I’ve learnt they are the glue that holds the community together and define a town or city’s personality.”

The stand will be located on the second floor of The Oracle by Debenhams on Friday, March 23 from 9.30am to 8pm.
