Implement a plan to restore our high streets, preventing their dilapidation.
We want the Government to put in place a clear plan of action to restore our high streets, enabling the use of empty shops and offices for the benefit of local communities nationwide. Prioritising the Implementation of new and innovative strategies to fill these empty spaces.
For towns and cities, the High Street acts as the main hub for community, supporting not just employment and commerce, but social connectedness and wellbeing. Empty stores are unsightly, a burden on landlords, hurt surrounding businesses, and when increasing High Street vacancy becomes everyone’s local problem, it needs a national solution.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about support for high streets, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government to set out in the plan you have requested, or what if any specific actions you want the Government to take to support high streets.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
In 2018 the Government launched "Our Plan for the High Street" to renew and reshape town centres and high streets. You can read more about this plan and funding to deliver it here: www.gov.uk/government/collections/future-high-streets-fund
