Tewkesbury Borough Business Voice

The Growth Hub Tewkesbury on behalf of Tewkesbury Borough Council needed to renew interest in its dormant business network - Tewkesbury Borough Business Voice.
Although established, the network hadn’t met or engaged with businesses for more than a year.



1284 Communications helped reinvigorate the brand.
The next step was to clearly communicate the benefits of TBBV to businesses, driving sign-ups for a relaunch event.
Deliverables included:
More than 30 businesses attended and committed to attending again.
After a successful relaunch, 1284 Communications was commissioned to organise and communicate a series of events over the course of 2025/26.
So far, three events have been delivered, at host venues across the borough including 270 Climbing Park and Sherdon’s Golf Centre.
Each has attracted 45+ sign-ups and more than 50 businesses are registered for the fourth event.
Over the last 12 months, the network has grown to have a healthy and engaged membership, whilst also attracting new businesses.
