Occupying the 1,600-sq ft ground floor of unit 4, Cath Kidston will be located below The White Company, which expanded its presence at Christopher Place earlier this year and committed to a further 10-year lease.

Recent figures demonstrate a close to 40 per cent uplift in footfall year on year. We continue to invest in the Centre, rolling out a new brand, refurbishing the car park and introducing commercialisation initiatives including social media engagement, marketing and events to appeal to both tenants and customers alike.”
