MonChic Mosaics

Still can't quite believe I gifted #theopaphitis one of my slate mosaics 😁 This particular piece was called "The guardian" A great honour to be an #sbswinner with #monchicmosaics and attend this year's event .

@TheoPaphitis Gutted to have missed it this year. Will be back next year though.

Well, #SBSEvent2026 was certainly a day to remember ! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - year after year, this really is one of my favourite days out of the office. Our community grows stronger and more engaged every single year, and these moments when we all come together to celebrate that are worth their weight in gold. I want to thank my wonderful fireside chat guest, Katie Piper OBE. After Katie came to visit me in my office, I knew she’d be brilliant on the main stage - but she still managed to blow me away! Her courage and resilience left everyone in the room - audience, crew and speakers alike - both engaged and inspired. A huge thank you as well to our other main stage guests, including my very own CEO Kypros Kyprianou, who once again set the tone perfectly with his energetic opening. Thanks also to Sim T. from TikTok Shop - your session was packed with insights and takeaways for us all. A special shout-out to our Small Business Stories: Resilience Rocks panel - Jenna Wilson (Little Dreams Consulting & Franchising Ltd), Sophia Lorimer (Fine-Tuned Wardrobe), and Hanan Tantush (Intotum) - and of course, our host, Dan Martin. Our pitchers were another real highlight of the day, huge congratulations to you all for your fantastic pitches ! As I said on the day, you certainly didn’t make judging easy for our panel of experts. Big congratulations to Kate Taylor (Evenly), Charlotte Giddings (Brownie and the Bean®️), and Sarah Howick and Georgina Louise Hammond (A Noble Gift) - you did yourselves and the #SBS community proud. Thanks to NatWest Business for funding this, as well as Kypros Kyprianou, Katie Piper OBE, Dr. Raphael Sofoluke and Michelle (Mi-shel) Prance (CEO at Mettle) A big thank you to Jess, Thea and the whole #SBS Crew for all the hard work and planning that went into making the day such a success. And a heartfelt thank you to all our event partners for helping us celebrate and uplift the UK’s small business community in such a special way: @NatWestBusiness @dhlexpressuk @freeagent @gs1uk @RymanStationery @RobertDyas @SumUp Spring Fair & Autumn Fair Hakim Group Culbert Ellis Lifestyle We're already talking about next year, bring on #SBSEvent2027 ! #helpingsmallbusinessesthinkbig #SBSEvent2026 #ResillienceRocks

@CoolgoldfishD Focus on you for a while. Here if I can help in anyway.

Well this is a tough post to write, but as some may know, I’ve been struggling (health wise) for a while now This will be my last #SBSWinnersHour for a few weeks while I take a step back from everything to concentrate on getting myself properly better and fighting fit again.

@LunneyWrit66035 Given you all follow on Instagram x

Hi there as it’s World Book day I have a competition for a free signed book that ends tonight at midnight. DO head over to my Instagram page bethanylunney_writes for a chance to win! I would love a few more follows there too! Thanks SO much #worldbookday2025

@WoodturnersWife @lnr_models That is absolutely the right term. Fish will be grouted darker so they stand out more.

@lnr_models @MonchicMosaics Isn’t it just?! It’s going to really pop once the grouting is complete (sorry Kirsty, if that’s not the right term for it)
