Do you live or work in Longridge and Shaw Heath? This year we’ll be preparing a new Neighbourhood Plan for Longridge and Shaw Heath that will look to the future. It’s an exciting time and a great opportunity for the people who live and work in Longridge and Shaw Heath to get involved in planning for the future.

In April, colleagues went door to door to meet with customers and get their views on the neighbourhood and what they think should be key priorities for the future.

This engagement day was the start of a programme of activity that will help ensure that customers’ views are at the forefront of shaping our future neighbourhood plan for Longridge and Shaw Heath.

We want to understand what is important to you about Longridge and Shaw Heath, we’ll use what you tell us to help shape our future neighbourhood plan. It doesn’t matter if you’ve already spoken to us you can still tell us what is important to you.
