Lot of our friends and customers no doubt kept wondering as to “why” we were forced to close so quickly. I can now openly discuss and share the battle that not only myself but other Independant friends and business, have or are facing against an external investment that has no care for the local community!
My only question is how can the local authority have let this happen despite the concerns raised were never followed through! How can we let large investments funds put profits above local community impact!
Funny that nearly all the large nationals within the centre had a revised deal or financial support in relocating like H&M in a very short time but all the Independant businesses within the centre either had their lease terminated with no offer of relocation despite several units available outside of the proposed redevelopment or simply revised contract not finalised two years down the line!
How can we let this happen to our community?!!! Cambridge BID Cambridge City Council
