We want to know what you think would bring businesses back to Rossendale ...?  With no large DIY centre anymore and no majot cloths retailer in the valley ... what would assist the valley to grow ? and more importantlt keep the money in the valley area and provide jobs.

Perhaps a B&Q or a Next clothing shop or perhaps something else. Rawtenstall has two Tesco's and Asda so what else could the residents want, so that they don't have to travel to Bury or one of the outside towns. Tell us and we will pass your suggestions to Rossendale Council and the larger retail organisations.

The valley needs regeneration and new large businesses to survive, and more importantly money needs to stay in the valley ...... !
