Really excited to be able to play a part in the next stage of Crewe town centre’s revival…
…especially as the heart of our role with #TheVacantShopsAcademy is exploring opportunities for #popupshop or ‘meanwhile… use’ of some of the empty & available units.
🎭 And for now the focus of that will be arts & crafts, creative, cultural, community, history & heritage, leisure, education, health and health & wellbeing, which means chance for us to demonstrate again how much those use types can offer to town and city centres alongside #retail, #hospitality or services.
So we’re looking forward to talking to local groups and organisations, businesses, #property agents, landlords, council, chamber and BID colleagues in the weeks ahead to scope options and potential units.
🚏 It’s encouraging also because there’s sooooo much happening in terms of new and upcoming infrastructure in and around the town centre including:
- A new bus station and multi-storey car park;
- An upcoming Crewe History Centre – “a story shared”;
🚲 Improved active travel links;
- Crewe Youth Zone – a safe and aspirational place for young people;
🔑 The ongoing ‘Repurposing Our High Streets’ tackling #highstreet vacancy grant funding initiative, supported by the #OpenInCrewe campaign;
📦 A recently re-opened Post Office;
And more…!
