High Street Hijack

Banter Marketing loves a great idea. And it’s even better when the good idea benefits charities and local communities.

We are already big fans of the work 3Space do and their mission “for all empty property to be recognised as an available resource that can deliver immediate social benefits and be a catalyst for longer term regeneration”.

And that’s why when we heard about their High Street Hijack competition we had to get involved and help out.

So what’s High Street Hijack? Well it’s a competition to reward charitable organisations who can come up with innovative and creative ideas for how they can temporarily occupy these empty spaces. Yes, that’s right, they’re looking for charity pop-ups, community projects or anything else that is centred on the occupation of one of their empty units.

And the winner will get…  FREE use of an empty retail unit and they’ll also receive up to £1,500 to help them pull off something that is not only  truly memorable but that will also be of a real benefit to the surrounding community and their organisation.

How great does that sound? If you know of a charity that could benefit from this great competition have a look here or get in touch by email.

If you’d like more information about the excellent charitable work 3Space do, you can find out more on their website, or even better show your support by following them on Twitter or Facebook.
