Thats an excellent point.
So HBC get £2 million pounds and tart up the town - good luck to them as well - then what?
If they cant sort out minor issues like a few drunks causing problems then what hope have we for it being any better after spending £2 million on the place?
Yes it will look nice but will still have the same social problems we have now. Drunks on benches/bus stops/asleep on the floor and foul mouthed people spoiling the area.
I wonder how many new visitors that come and see the restored historic town centre of Accrington will come back after falling over a drunk and listening to a nice group of Accy parents telling their kids to shut the you know what up while they chat together.
These social problems are the bigger issue in Accrington not the buildings in my opinion.
