Over the course of the last few months, I have been made aware of issues affecting the area including business rates, anti-social behaviour, littering, workplace parking levies, business closures and much more. With this in mind, I felt it important to bring together members of the business community to discuss in an open forum what actions could be taken forward to alleviate the pressures businesses are facing.
The meeting will bring together a number of key local stakeholders such as small business owners, business organisations, local elected representatives and will provide a great opportunity to discuss these issues in more depth- with a particular focus on the direct experiences of business owners and stakeholders in the Scottish Borders.
