🛹 Wolves Street Jam
About the Event
Wolves Street Jam was a key component of Community First Initiative's broader strategy to enhance the profile of Wolverhampton. Our strategy focuses on attracting new visitors to the city centre, boosting the local economy, and supporting our business entrepreneurship initiatives.
We recognise that while it's crucial to support individuals in starting businesses, it's equally important that Wolverhampton itself thrives, creating a conducive environment for these businesses to succeed.
To this end, we aim to organise city-wide events that elevate Wolverhampton's profile. Wolves Street Jam, in partnership with Skateboard GB and Subway, was a resounding success. The event drew new visitors to the city centre, providing a welcome boost to local businesses, some of whom expressed their gratitude for the increased footfall. Moreover, the event fostered diverse and harmonious community relations, reinforcing our commitment to promoting inclusivity and positivity in Wolverhampton. Overall, Wolves Street Jam was a highly positive and productive initiative.
Also, it gained national coverage through the BBC, highlighting the positive impact of community-led events in Wolverhampton.
