Cllr Guy Lambert is Here to Help Businesses
Councillor Guy Lambert, who is a Brentford Chamber member representing Thames Bank Credit Union writes a weekly diary for BrentfordTW8 on his council activities. Last week’s refers to his meeting with us:
In the evening, up to the Novotel to meet with Brentford Chamber of Commerce. The main discussion was about revival of the Brentford Dragons events which have provided a stimulus to young entrepreneurs over the last year or three, and the role a few of us have volunteered to take on as business mentors. We went on to talk about the strains local businesses are feeling and the great work being led by the Chamber and its president Suzie Betlem to alleviate them by working together and trying to buy goods and services locally, and of the role the council could play to support – and the fact that the council is often seen by business as the opposite of supportive.
