Covid is a huge challenge for us all – and particularly the future of our Market Towns and High Streets.

That’s why I was delighted to meet with Stuart Green, the Mayor of Dereham, on Friday evening to discuss a longer term Partnership of the key stakeholders in the town, and a longer term strategy for how we can make sure the community thrives and prospers.

A lot of great work has been done by the Town Council already and, with the support of our local councils, councillors and community groups like the aboutDereham Partnership, I am certain that we can help Dereham develop a Vision for itself – one that has at its heart a beautiful, more pedestrianised High Street and Market Place, with businesses growing around it and all of the fantastic opportunities they will bring for residents, especially our youngsters.
