Lord Mayor Mark Hackett and Lawrence Hennigan

 

For the past six months Lawrence, Mike and Monica from the Levenshulme traders have been very concerned about the damage to trade not only from the current economic climate but the roadworks in the Levenshulme area.

Since these meetings Lawrence has had several meetings with Cllr. Commons and Cassim Kaaba from the regeneration team to discuss ways of helping.

As a result of this there will be a business week in March 2011. This will involve a series of seminars for business help and advice

Before that, as part of the Levenshulme Festival, on Wednesday 3rd November 2010, the Levenshulme Traders Association in partnership with Manchester City Council will have a “Levenshulme means Business” event at m19 bar from 5.30pm to 7.30pm.

We can all network together and discuss what the local traders would like to see happen during the business week next spring.

Please come and join the growing number of local businesses and find out how the Levenshulme Traders Association with Manchester City Council and its partners can help you.

You can meet your local council officers and Councillors, find out what they can do for your business and share your ideas for developing the Levenshulme Business Week in the Spring 2011. We also encourage you all to join The Traders Association.

The event is sponsored by Manchester City Council and The Levenshulme Traders Association.

This event is FREE. There will be refreshments on the night
