The iconic actress and presenter, Dame Joanna Lumley, will grace the town with her presence to officially launch the reinvented Five Valleys Shopping Centre. Since acquiring the former Merrywalks Centre in 2018, Yorkshire-based property developer Dransfield Properties Ltd. has worked tirelessly to breathe new life into this once run-down complex. Their vision has reshaped the centre into a vibrant, modern hub that significantly elevates Stroud’s town centre.
