#SBS is one of the leading small business networks in the UK with over 4,500 members.
Each week, Theo Paphitis welcomes 6 small businesses who tweet, comment or post an image to @TheoPaphitis describing their businesses to the #SBS community. #SBS now runs on X, Instagram and LinkedIn.
#SBS helps small businesses think BIG!
Theo says, “I admire people who have passion and energy. If you cannot bore your friends to death about your own small business then something is seriously wrong. I was struck by the number of business owners on Twitter (now X) who wanted to tell me about their new products and services. Small Business Sunday was born so that people have a specific time slot to post and pitch their ‘sell’ directly to me. #SBS, marking its 15th anniversary in 2025, now runs on X, Instagram and LinkedIn and I am constantly blown away by the depth and quality of the entrants.”
Our June #SBS Winner of the Month is… Nikki Hollier from Border in a Box!
Reminders of Home: Award-Winning Garden Design
#SBS winner Nikki Hollier is celebrating a Silver Gilt medal at RHS Malvern Spring Festival 2026 for her Blooming Border, Reminders of Home.
Blending nostalgic cottage garden charm with a fresh, modern feel, the design draws inspiration from family gardens and shared memories, encouraging visitors to reflect on the simple joy of gardening. With soft planting, a classic picket fence and a handcrafted willow dog sculpture, the garden captures both warmth and creativity while promoting sustainability through wildlife-friendly planting and locally sourced materials.
Nikki, founder of Border in a Box, has spent the past decade building a reputation in the horticultural space, earning multiple RHS accolades along the way. Reflecting on this year’s show, she shared: “It’s a chance to inspire people, share practical design solutions, and highlight the emotional power of gardens.”
Marking 10 years since her first Malvern show garden, this latest award is both a celebration of her journey and a testament to the impact of thoughtful, accessible garden design.
P.S. Also a wonderful way to celebrate her 60th birthday!
