We encourage people into town with a varied events programme. In the Spring, we had an Art trail with beautifully painted windows for people to walk around, admire and unscramble the phrase. On Boat Race day, Riverside Radio hosted entertainment alongside a food and drink market. Over the summer holidays we had a campaign called Amazing August which every day spotlighted an event in a business ranging from arts and crafts for kids, exercise classes, to Mochi making classes. Many events were sold out and when surveyed people said they only came into Putney because of the event. In September we had a stand at Roehampton University Freshers Fair. Many of the students are new to the area and we promote Putney as their closest town centre for all their needs in both the daytime and the nightime.
Dates for the diary: Halloween event will be on Friday 31st October, Christmas community stage and light switch on Friday 28th November, Ice sculpture trail on Saturday 29th November.
