Transforming Hyndburn

The Vision

Hyndburn has a rich heritage that we want to build on and embrace for a prosperous future. Our borough has been disproportionately impacted for many years and now is our time. Over the past 12 months leaders across all the sectors in Hyndburn have come together, taken the guidance from experts and worked collaboratively with the council to create a vision which starts with Accrington and will lead the way for plans across all towns. A huge amount has been achieved in a short time, including establishing a town centre partnership board, a cultural and heritage board and submitting various funding bids and expressions of interest. At the core of this work is the people of Hyndburn and ensuring that plans protect our environment, are sustainable and also help us work towards our goal of net-zero carbon emissions. Improving life, air quality and outdoor spaces. This document shows some of the highlights, achievements and plans for the future, however it is by no means complete – we will be continuing to bring much needed funding to all our towns, lead on innovative transformation and ensure Hyndburn is a place people want to live, work and thrive.
