| Title | TEST EXAMPLE Engaging with local businesses – restoring ‘Thomas’ and beyond. |
|---|---|
| Description | Our business communities offer many skills and resources, and many wish to engage with the local communities in which they work. This example of good practice looks at how neighbourhood management can facilitate and encourage such links and foster relationships with local businesses for the benefit of everyone. Building relationships with local businesses and developing a joint approach to local community issues are underutilised in many areas of the country. It is important that these relationships are developed for the benefit of the community and the businesses involved. |
