Residents, businesses and community groups are being encouraged to have their say on the future of Immingham and Habrough as part of the Pride in Place programme.
Beginning this week and running throughout August, a series of pop-up engagement events will take place across Immingham, giving local people the opportunity to share their views on what they love about the area, what challenges they face, and how the towns could be improved for current and future generations.
Habrough residents are encouraged to attend the Immingham sessions, but opportunities to attend events in Habrough will also be confirmed soon.
The Pride in Place initiative aims to work closely with communities to identify local priorities and develop plans that help make Immingham and Habrough even better places to live, work and visit.
Representatives from the project team will be attending a range of venues, community facilities and local events to gather feedback from residents of all ages.
This engagement will build on the Immingham Town Plan consultation work carried out last year and will provide a starting point for the next phase of community discussions. The Town Plan can be found here: Immingham Town Plan | Immingham Town Council
The Immingham & Habrough Neighbourhood Board is currently considering a number of initial “quick win” projects while work progresses on wider engagement with residents. Feedback gathered from the community will help inform the development of a 10-year Regeneration Plan and a 4-year Investment Plan, both of which are key requirements of the Pride in Place Programme.
Andy Hopkins, Chair of the Board, said: “We want to hear directly from the people who know Immingham and Habrough best. Whether it’s improving local facilities, enhancing green spaces, supporting community activities or identifying opportunities for future investment, every opinion matters. These pop-up events provide an informal way for people to share their ideas and help shape future plans for the area.”
