Whitworth Play - Survey

Proffitts are working alongside Rossendale Borough Council and Whitworth Town Council on proposals to create a new play facility in Whitworth. There has been a significant number of new housing developments in Whitworth in recent years, with more planned in the future. This has a huge impact on existing play resources and additional facilities are needed to cope with the demand from the new families moving into the area. This questionnaire aims to determine the best location for a new facility and also what type of facility is needed in the town.

The deadline for completing the survey is 8th March, 2019. Thank you for your help.
