One of the county's biggest employers is offering four small firms the chance to exhibit at a business show for free.

Infrastructure giant FM Conway, based in Sevenoaks, is offering the spaces for companies to showcase their wares at the Sevenoaks Business Show on September 22.

The event is being organised by the town's chamber of commerce and Town Team.

Explains the firm's head of corporate social responsibility, Sharon Field: "We hope that small businesses and sole traders who have expressed an interest in exhibiting at the show but are not in a position to pay the funds will take the opportunity offered."

The Sevenoaks Town Team and Sevenoaks District Chamber of Commerce are now appealing for four small businesses that would benefit to get in touch.

Applications for the free spots should be sent to townteam@sevenoakstown.gov.uk with just basic information about the business and why it would benefit from being at the show. The deadline for entries is Friday, September 10.

FM Conway is also financing a stand for the Samaritans at the event.

The show takes place between 10am and 2pm on September 22 at the newly opened Bat & Ball Centre in Cramptons Road. Entry and car parking is free.
