A new consultation has been launched which will help shape the future of Golborne High Street.
The “Shaping Our Future” initiative is being run by Golborne and Lowton West Neighbourhood Forum to gather community feedback on potential revitalisation projects.
The consultation aims to collect local opinions on quality of life in the area, exploring both strengths and challenges facing Golborne and Lowton West, and the High Street area specifically.
What does the consultation cover?
The survey asks residents for their views on:
- Quality of life in the local area
- Key challenges and issues facing the community
- Local employment opportunities
- Types of businesses or industries people want to see more of
- Leisure facilities such as parks and sports venues
- The sense of community in the area
- Safety concerns in Golborne town centre
- What new shops and services you’d like to see locally
- How important it is for empty and derelict buildings to be brought back into use
Importantly, it also asks what single project – big or small – you’d most like to see prioritised.
All feedback gathered will help the Neighbourhood Forum identify the most appropriate funding sources to apply for to improve Golborne Town Centre.
How to take part
The deadline for responses is the end of March 2025.
You can complete the survey online here or pick up a paper copy from either Ergo Coffee Shop or Golborne Library.
This is a valuable opportunity to have your say on the future development of the area and ensure local voices are heard in the planning process.
