Re: What’s good about Accrington/Hyndburn, what makes you proud?
I think what's "good" does not necessarily have to make you "proud." The very word implies some input or sense of achievement to make one proud. We can all be pleased about the view from the Copice, the beauty of the Tiffany glass, the magnificence of the surrounding countryside etc. but "proud" I feel is the wrong word. None of us made the Tiffany glass nor the various beautiful views so we cannot really be proud. Why don't we just ask people what they like about living in Accrington and surrounding districts. What pleases them about the town and what it has to offer. We may get a few more answers. I think "proud" is putting people off replying.
