SHOPKEEPERS' leader Gordon Jackson is urging fellow traders to band together. The Leigh Business Partnership chairman, who hopes to be installed for his sixth year of office on Wednesday, February 21 at the LBP annual meeting (7pm start) in the Derby Room above Leigh Library, is encouraging fellow business people to call in and air their views.

"This is the best place to voice any concerns," said Mr Jackson, who said police and local authority representatives would be attending."
