This morning we hosted a breakfast networking event at our Unity Place offices, bringing together businesses from across the city to support Swindon’s City of Culture bid, in partnership with Swindon Borough Council.
Amy Brettell, Managing Director of Zurich Municipal and Engineering delivered a speech explaining why, as one of Swindon’s largest employers with many of our people living in the area, the bid matters deeply to us. Amy highlighted how culture can drive regeneration, economic growth, place‑making and community pride. Becoming a City of Culture is about more than a year of celebration, it’s an opportunity to shape Swindon’s future and create lasting benefits for our communities.
