Tetbury Town Centre was part of this initiative - check the report for more details.

📢 New report just published!

The Cotswold Town Centres Initiative takes a closer look at the future of our high streets — exploring challenges like vacancy rates, changing retail habits, and rising business costs, while setting out practical ideas to help our towns thrive.

From strengthening local partnerships to rethinking how spaces are used, the report highlights how town centres can evolve into vibrant, mixed-use community hubs.

This work was funded by the Government’s UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
