Opus Group opens new office in Reigate
Business Communications provider Opus Telecoms has recently relocated its head office to London Court, London Road Reigate. The 9,300 square foot space replaces existing offices in Wimbledon and Sevenoaks, and brings the group’s telecoms, networks, managed print and IT services divisions under one roof. The newly fitted out open plan office has more than 80 desks, a 30-seat conference room, a demonstration suite, several smaller meeting rooms, and break-out zones. The move was necessary to support the continuing growth of the business as it approaches its 25th anniversary this March.
Business community and social value
The benefits of business and charities working together are well established. Our recent workshop identified some great case studies and we are keen to try to establish stronger connections between business and charities locally.
Surrey have a market place which seeks to match charity and community groups requirements with business for mutual benefit.
Redhill Update
Its all go for Redhill
Work has been progressing steadily on the Warwick Quadrant redevelopment, the new Sainsburys store opened in August, the old canopy has been replaced and work is progressing on the paving before new planters go in. The whole scheme which will include a Travel Lodge, gym and car park with approx 875 spaces, is due to be completed this year.
A planning application has also been submitted for the Marketfield Way site. This can be viewed by searching 16/01066/F on the Planning application search and will be discussed at a future planning committee.
A revised planning application has been received for the former Liquid and Envy site requesting planning permission for 133 apartments and associated parking. You can search reference 16/02680/F on the Planning application search for more information. This will be discussed at a future planning committee.
Make sure you have your say on improvements in your local area
Residents and businesses are being urged to share their views on how money raised from new development should be spent to improve facilities and services in their neighbourhood.
In April 2016, Reigate & Banstead Borough Council introduced the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL), a new charge which developers of new homes and supermarkets are required to pay to help fund infrastructure and services.
Most of the money generated through the levy will be used to fund large projects – like schools, healthcare and transport. However, 15% of the money collected, known as the Local Improvement Fund will be made available to spend on smaller local projects in the neighbourhoods where development has been built.

Most of the money generated through the levy will be used to fund large projects – like schools, healthcare and transport. However, 15% of the money collected, known as the Local Improvement Fund will be made available to spend on smaller local projects in the neighbourhoods where development has been built. Known as the Local Improvements Fund, it can be spent on a wide range of projects to improve neighbourhoods in the borough, from improving a nearby community hall or providing new playground equipment at a local green space, to upgrading walking and cycling routes to local shops and schools.
Cllr Victor Broad, Council Leader, said: “It is important that our local infrastructure keeps pace with increasing demand, whether that’s meeting the demand for school places, keeping our roads moving or improving our parks and open spaces.
“Money raised through the new levy will help us and our partners to meet some of these big infrastructure challenges and ensure that our growing communities are supported by the services and facilities they need.
“Our new Local Improvements Fund will give communities a fantastic opportunity to shape how some of the money we collect is spent to improve and enhance the facilities and services in their neighbourhood, making sure that we all feel the benefits that new development can bring.
“I would encourage residents, local businesses and community groups to get involved in our consultation. Whether you have an idea for a specific project that needs funding or just want to tell us which services and facilities should be enhanced in your area, we want to hear your views.”
How to get involved
You can get involved by completing a short online survey on the Community Infrastructure Levy page of the Council’s website www.reigate-banstead.gov.uk/LocalFund. For those without access to the internet, hard copies of the survey will be available at local libraries or by calling 01737 276178. The deadline for responses is 5pm on Monday 6 February 2017.
