The Future of Blackpool

Thanks for signing up for news. At the end of week one we have already received over 1,000 comments. The most commented on area is ‘Place’, especially bringing empty houses into use and improving the quality of renting. We have also seen a focus on job creation being very important for people as a way of strengthening the town’s economy and creating high quality jobs. The subject with the least comments is Skills and Education, so if you know someone who this is important to, please ask them to have their say.
