SaveTheHighStreet.org – which is campaigning to help shopping centres that are facing challenging times – is to hold a series of advice sessions in High Barnet on Wednesday 12 December.

Retailers and businesses are being invited to book an appointment to meet a team of specialist consultants who can share the latest advice on steps to drive footfall to their premises and increase sales.

Advice sessions will be available from 8.30am to 8pm and will be held at the Coffee Bean café in the Spires shopping centre. Traders can gain advice on how to receive a free personalised growth plan.

The visit by specialists from SaveTheHighStreet.org has been arranged by Gail Laser, founder of LoveBarnet, and she hopes that as many local businesses as possible will get involved.

Coffee Bean proprietors Krimo and Paul Assoul have offered to remain open until 8pm so that retailers and business owners can attend after their premises have closed.

Their team of specialists are already speaking to Barnet Council...

“SaveTheHighStreet.org is gathering momentum and is now a recognised and highly praised voice across the UK in helping high streets and independent businesses,” said Gail Laser.

“They are already working in several major town centres and have generously taken on board the plight of our high street here in High Barnet.

“Their team of specialists are already speaking to Barnet Council and pressing them to give us more support to ensure that our high street continues to be an attractive shopping destination.”

Three informal sessions will be held on Wednesday 12 December – between 8.30am to 9.30am; 5.30pm to 6.30pm; and 7pm to 8pm.
