N0tice and We Are Cardiff campaign to make a difference 

N0tice hope to raise awareness with their Youtube video

We Are Cardiff are joining forces with community driven company n0tice in a bid to encourage locals in and around Cardiff and other UK capitals to join the campaign to change their highstreets for the better.

The local highstreet is the beating heart of the community and it is important to celebrate it, but the effects of recession have meant that many businesses have recently closed down.

The campaign entitled Celebrate and Change my Highstreet encourages the public to use Twitter to not only celebrate their highstreets but help to transform them for the better.

Sarah Hartley from n0tice said, “We hope the campaign will give people a way to voice the good things happening around Cardiff as well as sparking some action where needed.”
