WELCOME TO REIGATE BUSINESS GUILD

Whether you are a Reigate Business Guild member or not, we hope that you find this site informative and useful.

Reigate Business Guild was set up in 1991. The Guild enjoys the support of one hundred organisations from in and around Reigate town centre, ranging from large corporate businesses to sole trader shops and restaurants, all individuals who care about Reigate and its surroundings.

We are a local, united, voluntary voice from within the business community, promoting commerce, safeguarding the environment, organising events and supporting activities and opportunities for the benefit of the town. We work closely with Reigate & Banstead Council to help keep the streets clean and Surrey Police to help keep the streets safe.

The aims of Reigate Business Guild are:

To promote, enhance and protect the charming, unique town of Reigate.
To promote Reigate as an attractive place to live, work and visit, now and in the future.
To raise the profile of the town to help it remain vibrant.
To encourage networking to promote business.

The town is decorated at Christmas with street lights and trees, supplied and funded solely by the Guild at a cost of £15,000. The money is raised by subscriptions, fund-raising events and the generous donations made by local businesses.

Our annual Christmas Fayre will be held on the first Saturday of December. This is located in Church Street and comprising of a mix of food and artisan craft stalls. Street entertainment is provided to add to the atmosphere of the event. Free parking is also provided by Reigate & Banstead Council.
