Revisit the full Wealden High Streets support programme
At the start of 2026, the East Sussex Growth Hub ran a business support programme aimed at supporting High Street businesses and retailers in Wealden.
Delivered by The High Street Experts, a series of in-person workshops and online webinars sought to help local High Street businesses improve footfall, visibility and trading confidence. Topics covered included goals and planning; understanding your ideal customer; better windows and displays; branding and marketing; social media; and website e-commerce.
Alongside the above how-to guides, the full set of programme materials is now available to view on The High Street Experts’ website – including downloadable workbooks for each session, short videos and factsheets on practical topics.
The Wealden High Streets Engagement and Support programme was funded by HM Government and the partnership of East Sussex County Council, East Sussex Growth Hub and Wealden District Council. The programme was delivered in February and March 2026 by The High Street Experts, who have more than 35 years of independent retail and small business experience, and continue to run their own businesses alongside this High Streets support work.
