Fresh Fish Shop Opening is Good News for Hayes in New Year

This month a fresh fish shop has opened Hayes Town Centre. This is really good news for the continuing revival of town centre for the New Year. There hasn’t been a fresh fish shop in the town centre for many, many years. The new shop greatly improves the opportunities for local shoppers. The new shop is the venture of local resident Mr Mohammed Titouh. There is a real gap in the market for local fresh fish, particularly with the promotion of fish as part of a healthy diet, and this shop provides a wide range of the fresh fish and seafoods that are in local demand. The shop is located in the town centre near to both the Hesa Health Centre and St Anselm’s church. It will make a major contribution to reviving our town centre. A few years ago I set up the Hayes Town Centre Partnership to bring together all those agencies, businesses and local groups who could assist in regenerating our town centre. Since then there have been quite a few improvements but there is alot more that needs to be done. One of my New Year’s resolutions will be to continue to do all I can to bring our town centre back to life. In 2010 we will be organising through Hayes FM the Hayes Town Centre community arts programme, which will aim to attract people into the town centre not just for shopping during the day but also for a wide range of entertainment in the evening.
