Accrington town centre in line for a share of Government money.
According to the front of the Accrington Observer today, the town missed out on getting funding to regenerate the High Street....it is said that although we won't get money...we will get advice.
Yet I have read elsewhere that Accrington is one of the 14 towns to share a pot of £1 billion pounds to try and bring life back to town centres.
Preston is also one of the towns to be assisted in this way.
It would be interesting to see how this money is to be used as this is a pilot scheme.
If it is successful then the government will roll out help for 101 town centres.
