The document discusses efforts to revitalize Chrisp Street Market in London through a partnership approach. It brings together public, social, and business sectors to deliver events that increase footfall and healthier options. A town team of volunteers, local groups, and public services work to localize existing assets and commission physical improvements. This has led to more traders and retailers, increased fruit and vegetable sales by 18,000 pounds a week, and 7,500 healthier meal covers served weekly.

Editor's Notes
#3: Up until October 2013 Town Team partners, including landlords, market services, the Idea Stores and the local primary care networks, and local people were working towards this vision without external funding
Partnership and delivery of “in-kind” measures (July 2013 – ongoing) via the Town Team partners
long deliberation over how to go forward
How could the markets attract new, more affluent residents whilst still serving needs of existing population very much less wealthy
How could the Pilot could influence redevelopment of Chrisp Street
SAT team to inform tender brief for commissioned work
Commissioned work via funding from the GLA ( October 2013- March 2014)
However
Underpinned by a strong vision
Long history of a very good community network in the area
Led by PH locality manager connected at all levels
