A series of Renaissance Road Shows will be taking place over the coming months, with the sole aim of getting the message out there on what's happening in your town.  The renaissance team will soon be travelling around the Borough to meet you in leisure centres, supermarkets and libraries and tell you about the regeneration plans for the town centre.  They will be at the venues on the dates listed from 10am - 4pm to tell you what developments are finished and what's going to be starting.  This is a great chance for you to ask them questions so go and seem them!
