WE are Whiteley

We want to let you know a little more about the people working in Whiteley right now. Whilst we may be unusually quiet at the moment, we thought you might like to know what we’re up to. These are the people working throughout this crisis to ensure our community gets what it needs and stays as safe as possible whilst doing it. They are our heroes.

This is Elliot from the Whiteley Service Team. Elliot is responsible for keeping our malls and back of house areas clean, safe and operational at all times. He’s part of a small team of people responsible for ensuring everyone that comes to Whiteley is a safe as possible.

Since the pandemic started Elliot has taken on an extra hours to support his colleagues. Elliot lives with his mum, dad and little sister who is asthmatic so is constantly worried about bringing the virus home to his family. He says he still comes to work though because he has a duty to maintain the centre and make sure everything is clean and safe for our retailers and our community. If he has one message for you, it’s to please only come out to Whiteley if it’s for essential shopping and remember to keep 2 metres away at all times.

From us to you, thank you Elliot.
