What about us?

ARE Malvern Council submitting for the Government’s initiative to revive England's high streets?

I see Ledbury have put themselves forward: http://www.ledburyreporter.

co.uk/news/9595051.Wanted_Queen _of_Shops_to_revamp_High_Street/ Why is it when we have such beautiful hills and tourist trade that you submit to Iceland and Wetherspoons for a quick revenue rather than expanding our high street to encourage small businesses and rejuvenate the town centre that has taken no advantage of its location and beautiful features. Create a hub of commercial activity such as farmers’ markets and bespoke shops – a farmers’ market of four stalls down by the post office once a month does not count.

Let’s put ourselves forward for such an initiative and embrace some change...
