This neighbourhood plan will provide you with all the info you need, from the number of homes we own in the area and what our current customers think about living here, to investment works and support we are providing.
We love our homes and neighbourhoods and we are passionate about making a difference and working together to build vibrant and safe communities where you love to live too.
We work closely with customers and listen to your feedback so we can put in place action plans to address any key issues and make Alt and Glodwick a great place to live.
