Alok Sharma MP Visits Reading Town Centre For Opening
Nigel Horton-Baker, Executive Director Reading UK, said: “Reading UK is delighted that the Rt Hon Alok Sharma MP, Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, chose Reading as the national example of the efforts being made by retail businesses, business organisations and the local authority to ensure town centres can open safely again from Monday 15 June.”

“Reading UK, working with the business community in the town centre and Reading Borough Council have put in place measures to help with social distancing, advice on maintaining hygiene in the town centre and support on the ground for shoppers. We look forward to welcoming people back to the town centre gradually over the next few weeks as retailers open their doors again.”
