			<p><a href="/about-chesterfield/destination-chesterfield/" title="about-chesterfield/destination-chesterfield">Destination Chesterfield</a><span class="hide">|</span> has a century of members for the <a href="/champions/" title="champions">Chesterfield Champions</a><span class="hide">|</span> scheme. Southside Magazine, United Cast Bar Limited and Places and Faces Magazine are the latest businesses to support the project.</p>
<p>Southside Magazine, who are the 100th Champion, spontaneously joined at Destination Chesterfield&rsquo;s Celebrate Chesterfield Event after hearing the future plans for the Town.</p>
<p>Simon Moreman, Publishing Manager of Southside Magazine said &ldquo;There are so many exciting projects coming forward for Chesterfield, we as a business have a key role to play in helping the town to promote these changes and wanted to be involved.&rdquo;</p>
<p>The Champions support the future development of <a href="/home/" title="home">Chesterfield</a><span class="hide">|</span> through support and guidance to Destination Chesterfield on how they promote Chesterfield.</p>
<p>James Brand, Sales Director of United Cast Bar Limited said &ldquo;We are a large local employer and plan to grow further, if the business community can work together to improve Chesterfield and its profile this will increase the opportunities available to companies in the town.</p>
<p>Beverley Bearder, Managing Director of Places and Faces Magazine said &ldquo;We are keen to support the development of Chesterfield especially the growth of its speciality businesses. Through the support of our magazine we will assist in raising the profile of the town across Derbyshire and South Yorkshire.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Peter Swallow, Chair of Destination Chesterfield said &ldquo;it is great that 100 businesses of all sizes and from all sectors support our approach to promoting Chesterfield. A year ago we launched the scheme and we thank the first 100champions for their support and look forward to working with the current and new champions in the future.</p>
<p>Destination Chesterfield which is funded through money from the European Regional Development Fund, is helping to improve the economic prosperity of the town through a campaign to promote Chesterfield as a modern contemporary destination. This approach to promoting the town sees the local business community playing a central role in its success by leading an independent board of Directors for Destination Chesterfield, and businesses pledging their support to become Chesterfield Champions.</p>
