GB-London: LGA Good practice research on Empty Retail Units and what councils can do

Tender description

LGA wishes to commission research to capture innovative practice and expert views to help local authorities on what they can do to help put empty vacant units, especially in high streets and town centres, to alternate uses. The pandemic and associated lockdown has resulted in a very significant reduction in demand for products and services from high streets. The impact of this is that many high street businesses are reducing their presence in town centres leaving the area and remaining neighbouring businesses with negative long-term consequences. Suppliers with suitable experience and track record of working with local authorities on this issue are invited to apply.
