Future Our main mission to conserve the heritage, cultures and country tradition of the area's shops, hostelries, and galleries - in the face of brutal rent and rate rises. We support those with a tradition of excellence - some from as far back as Henry 8th. We are also developing a network of support services for a small poorer local community like street vendors and artists St James's Church. Our charity is the homeless.
