A thriving town centre is integral to the success of our communities. Wimbledon Town Centre Management strives to make the town a better place for local businesses, their customers and local residents. As a newspaper serving the local area, it is essential that we keep in touch with the key issues and, where possible, help influence those improvements. Katherine Glass, Wimbledon Guardian

Committed to its success...

I am pleased to be a board member of the Town Centre Management, and be part of the decision making process which will ultimately ensure that Wimbledon is one of the leading towns in the South West of London in which to live, work and shop. We are committed to its success. Mike Briggs, Group Marketing Co-Ordinator, Friends Provident


the difference it has made...

We've supported the town centre management initiative since it was launched and have experienced the difference it has made. As a member of the Town Centre Partnership, and chair of the Executive Committee, I am proud of the achievements of Wimbledon Town Centre Management to date, and look forward to welcoming new business partners.

I feel I have a voice....

For me it's about opportunities to help shape the environment and influence the community in which we operate as a business. I can meet and communicate with all the big players in the business sector, which has already proved to be very advantageous. I feel I have a voice, which is listened to, and I have been able to talk to someone about issues in Wimbledon that I have felt strongly about (and something has been done about it!) Supporting all this is money well spent and I would urge everyone to do the same. Steve Mackinson, General Manager, Cannons Health Club www.cannons.co.uk

No Forum, No Voice
Wimbledon Town Centre Management is the single most important forum for local businesses interested in taking a longer term view of this fantastic town . The resource is there and can be used by any business manager who recognizes the value of open discussions targeted at the right people. Participation is a democratic entitlement and should be exercised regularly to be effective. This is a positive initiative which can benefit all those who participate. San Lorenzo Fuoriporta has become involved to ensure that we actively support the interests of our local community. Ghigo Berni, Manager, San Lorenzo Fuorioporta www.sanlorenzo.com

Wimbledon town centre is very important to all local businesses of whatever size and is not limited to the retail sector.
