Share Your Views on Hemel Old Town

Hemel old town project

Dacorum Borough Council is seeking residents’ views on the future of Hemel Old Town.

This is a thriving and beautifully historic part of Hemel Hempstead, and the Old Town Place project aims to support the ambitions of businesses and communities in the area, and to help create a better place where the local community can thrive and feel pride.

The Council are exploring new opportunities to improve Dacorum places. It has an important leadership role to play in co-ordinating efforts and activities to improve Hemel Hempstead as a place, but it cannot do this alone.

As part of this programme, they are keen to hear from residents on what makes the Old Town a successful and thriving place to live, visit and work.

Cllr Alan Anderson, Portfolio Holder for Planning and Infrastructure said: ‘The Old Town is one of the jewels in the crown of many important places in Hemel Hempstead. Whereas it benefited from a package of improvements a few years ago, we recognise there is more to do to build on its great strengths. To help shape its future, your views are really important and I would encourage people to take just a few minutes to complete our online survey.’
