Roger Wade, CEO, Boxpark: "The centre of our communities don't need to die"
If we don't do something about our high streets, town centres and people working from home, we will lose a way of life and the social fabric of our places, says Roger Wade, CEO, Boxpark in this interview. Wade makes a passionate plea for government to level the playing field between online retail and shopfronts in terms of business rates, arguing that physical retail can compete on content. "The centres of our communities don't need to die... but we need to create the right circumstances for hospitality, restauranteurs and shops."
