Help us celebrate our longest-standing local businesses
The Wandsworth Business Legacy Scheme celebrates the businesses that have helped shape the borough the years.
We are inviting residents, customers and members of the local community to nominate businesses that have been trading Wandsworth for 25 years or more. This could be a much-loved shop, restaurant, market trader, professional service or creative maker that has made a lasting contribution to its neighbourhood.
Businesses that have been trading locally for 50 years or more may also receive a special Lifetime Achievement acknowledgement, recognising their exceptional longevity and contribution.
This new annual scheme is our way of thanking the businesses that have supported generations of residents, contributed to our high streets and local economy and remained part of the community through changing times. It also encourages residents to discover and continue supporting longstanding local businesses.
A panel will review all eligible nominations and select up to 25 businesses to be recognised. Selected businesses will be invited to a special reception, where they will receive a certificate recognising their longstanding contribution to the borough and local community.
Nominate a business
Tell us about a longstanding local business that deserves to be celebrated and why it is important to you or your community.
You can nominate your own business or a business you know. Businesses may receive more than one nomination, but the number of nominations received will not determine the final selection. Together, we’ll shine a spotlight on the local businesses that have been at the heart of our communities for decades, recognising their success, resilience and lasting contribution to borough life.
