North Yorkshire Council is inviting residents of South Craven towns and villages to help shape a town investment plan for the next five to ten years.

North Yorkshire Council is drawing up a town investment plan for South Craven, covering towns and villages including Glusburn, Cross Hills, Sutton-in-Craven, Cowling, Cononley, Farnhill, Kildwick and Lothersdale. The plan will set out how the area should develop over the next five to ten years.

Residents, visitors and business owners can have their say through an online survey closing on 6 December, or by attending drop-in events at South Craven Library in Cross Hills. These are scheduled for Saturday 24 October from 10am to 12 noon, and Monday 9 November from 4pm to 6pm.

A spokesperson for North Yorkshire Council said it wants to know what people love about living or visiting the area and what would make it a better place. The survey asks residents to identify the best things about South Craven, such as its shops or tourism offer, as well as the main challenges facing the area. These include access to services, housing, opportunities for young people, parking and traffic congestion, and public transport.
