We have many great local and independent shops and businesses in Surrey Heath, which do so much for the local community and the economy.
Michael is passionate about championing these businesses, and encourages residents to join him in giving them the trade and encouragement they need to thrive.
As well as regularly visiting businesses across the constituency, Michael also hosts a Business Breakfast Club, which meets quarterly at various locations across Surrey Heath. Michael founded his Business Breakfast Club in 2006 to provide the opportunity to help strengthen ties with local businesses and councillors. If you run a local business and are interested in becoming a member of Michael’s Business Breakfast Club, please email office@shca.org.uk.
Michael has been helping local Conservative councillors to improve local amenities and important shopping areas, such as those in Old Dean and Heatherside, and has discussed ways to reduce the number of vacant properties and shops, both locally and nationally.
Michael is also supporting the brilliant work of local Conservative Councillors to maximise the potential of Camberley Town Centre, and Michael was delighted by the news in April 2022 that Camberley Town Centre has been named as the UK’s top town for doing business – you can read more here.
