21st Century City

An Old City with New Ideas...

This section embraces the modern side of Worcester. Since I can remember Worcester has been a growing and thriving city, but no more so than now. In the last 10 years Worcester has seen incredible growth and development. Many areas, previously derelict, have seen new developments this has provided highly desirable city living accommodation and some excellent locations for a bit of retail therapy.

Business has also seen a great boom with companies like Apollo 2000, IBM and Seimens settling in the area and traditional older Worcester businesses such as Lea and Perrins, Kays Catalogue and Bosch (Worcester Heating Systems) thriving.

Worcester also offers a great program of entertainment, events include the Worcester Festival, the famous Three Choirs Festival and the Victorian Christmas Market. More permanent features include excellent eating out, traditional pubs, great sports (Cricket and Rugby being the highest profile) and less than 10 miles away is one of the nations biggest province theatres: The Malvern Theatre.

So this section, is a tribute to Worcester and everything Worcester.

 

 

The highly modern Worcestershire Royal Hospital, opened in 2002, this replaced the decrepit Ronkswood Hospital and Castle Street Infirmary.
