There isn’t enough support for independent businesses in Southend (we know, we ran one 😭), and trying to market your business when you’re busy doing everything else…is painful.

We created Indie SOS as a way to connect the people of Southend to the incredible independent businesses and events that are happening in their town so that you can focus on running your biz.

THIS SOUNDS GREAT, HOW DO WE JOIN?
