Oakham Town Partnership wants businesses and people to help shape developments in the area by giving their views on how money from major developments should be spent on regenerating the town.

The partnership now wants to hear from the community on how the town should be developed.

Alf Dewis, chairman of the partnership and an Oakham town councillor, said: “This is a large amount of money and has the potential to have a big impact on the town.

“This is a great opportunity for traders and the public to have their say on the future of Oakham.

People can have their say by e-mailing the partnership at enquiries@oakhamtownpartnership.co.uk.

The partnership is also calling for new members to join its team, which due to people leaving, will soon drop from 14 to 12.

Oakham Town Partnership will be holding its annual general meeting on Thursday next week at 6.30pm, in the Victoria Hall in High Street, Oakham. Those interested in joining the group can attend the meeting.
