Marsden of the Future: And your part in shaping it

This important meeting, organised by the Marsden Community Trust, introduced the next chapter in the exciting story of how Marsden people are shaping their own place. Participants learned what local people have said in the ‘What matters to Marsden’ activities and heard how this evidence is already creating new opportunities for the local area. A new Town Team is being formed, working in partnership with Kirklees Council, to manage a design programme for the area. Levelling Up funding from the UK Government has also been granted to sensitively redevelop the New Mill on Brougham Road. We invited citizens to come along to learn how they can get involved and to make sure that their voice is heard.
