Rich in City Centre Matters
1st June 2010
Rich and the We Create* shop was feature in the Wolverhampton City Centre Company summer newsletter issue six that's distributed to the public and retailers in the city centre.
The article reads
Enterprising Ways of Using Shops
As part of the Department of Communities and Local Government 'Empty Shops' initiative, WCCC worked with social entreprenuer Richard Leighton to set up an inspiring shop.
We Create* in Victoria Street offers young designers a taste of commercial experience in retailing and access to a design studio with commercial equipment and facilities.
The DCLG grant helped with the property costs and any surplus capital from the retail operation is invested by Richard in running free fashion-based support service and workshops around fashion design, production, and promotion, and retail. Visit the shop at 42 Victoria Street or www.wecreate.org.uk
Many Thanks and Kind Regards
We Create*
