Talk High Streets

Animating New Malden High St

New Malden local businesses and communities have come together, working with New Malden Rotary Club, to deliver a package of town centre animation that can include colourful banners and lights illuminating high street trees.

This autumn New Malden town centre will celebrate its Korean community across a weekend event, delivered by Korean British Cultural Exchange, highlighting Korean food, heritage, and culture, supporting food businesses in New Malden and local producers.

The pandemic highlighted the need for businesses to work closer together, and working with the Rotary Club, New Malden will see the establishment of a new business forum and online hub directly responding to this need.
