Wem
Chamber of Commerce
Founded
in the mid 60's the Wem Chamber was originally a Chamber of Trade
and it served the shopkeepers in the town. The focus changed over
the years and it was renamed the Chamber of Commerce in the 80's
to reflect the fact that it was by then representing the service
and manufacturing sectors as well as the shopkeepers.
This
broader and more inclusive organisation is now well placed to serve
the needs of the wider business community in the Wem postal area;
also through our affiliation with the Shropshire Chamber of commerce
and Enterprise we support the promotion of training either in the
workplace, or by means of numerous relevant courses.
The
present Chamber's purpose is to:-
1.
Give support to its members.
2. Return something back to the community.
3. Promote trade.
4. Provide representation on and co-operate with the various
public bodies set up in recent years to improve the well being of
our society.
The
town centre of Wem has improved greatly in recent years and with
new funding coming on stream we expect to see this improvement continue.
The
Chamber is particularly anxious to promote new enterprises that
bring (new) skills and jobs to this area. We are blessed with an
enviously attractive countryside, good communications, good neighbours
and schooling which is getting excellent results.
