grangetownOrder Description
The Community Gateway project is one of the five flagship engagement projects identified in the University\u2019s The Way Forward document. The project aims to pilot initiatives and interventions through community projects linked to existing research and teaching at X University. The initial pilot is set up in Grangetown, one of the most culturally diverse and largest electoral districts in Cardiff.<\/p>\n

Context:
There are a number of diverse independent shops in Grangetown that have been in the area for years. Being so close to the City Centre, and with more and more chain stores being established, there is greater risk that these shops will not stand the test of time. In light of the Council\u2019s recent regeneration of a key shopping junction in Grangetown, in which businesses are having their shop-fronts replenished, local resident, Steve Duffy, would like to develop an online and \u2018in person\u2019 Business Forum to encourage businesses to collaborate, cross-promote and showcase the best of Grangetown.
Steve is a member of local Residents\u2019 Association, Grangetown Community Action (GCA) which has a website with the potential to feature local businesses. This already has an online directory with a list of shops and businesses and some web links. GCA can also promote local business through their Twitter account and a Facebook page\/group, which has been set up but currently has no-one actively running it. Steve hopes that once a Business Forum is developed, this could lead into a \u2018Shop Local\u2019 scheme. Together the Business Forum and Shop Local Campaign will aim to:
* Promote the diversity and friendliness of Grangetown as a community
* Make local business owners and the wider community aware that many shop owners live locally and therefore supporting local business is supporting your local community
* Showcase the broad range of shops on offer in Grangetown to new shoppers
* Encourage cross promotion between local businesses
* Develop new forms of promotion through the GCA website and social media<\/p>\n
