Burnley Councillor Lubna Khan, Executive Member for Development and Growth, and Burnley Council's Senior Economic Development Officer, recently presented a cheque to Burnley Together. Following a recent Business Survey that was conducted across the town the donation for £300 was made by PS Research who co-ordinated the survey as well as Burnley Council.

Businesses in Burnley were encouraged to complete the survey and by way of saying thank you both PS Research and the local council chose to make this donation to Burnley Together which is based in Down Town. The charity is a community hub which makes a difference for local families.

Nicola Larnach from Down Town, said,
“We appreciate your generous donation. Your support enables us to continue delivering group activities and service drop-ins, providing a welcoming space where community members can access advice, information, support, and connect with others. Thank you for helping us make a positive difference.”

We’re incredibly proud to share that Burnley Council has been named Council of the Year at the LGC Awards.

It reflects the dedication of our staff, councillors, partners, volunteers, community groups and residents, all working together to make Burnley a stronger, fairer and more ambitious place.

A huge thank you to everyone who has played a part in Burnley’s story.

Out in Bank Hall today with the Bank Hall Councillors, a productive day and a big thank you to all who supported Afrasiab Anwar in his recent election- lovely to see some of you today.

We were called out to specific areas today and met with residents to offer solutions to community issues they were facing.

Meaningful conversations and lots of casework picked up across the ward, flytipping logged and relevant authorities already been contacted for all other case work.

Following concerns logged by residents in Bank Hall on Friday, all of which have been passed on to the relevant departments, local councillors went out to meet with residents in the affected areas and streets today on our Ward walk.

We logged any new jobs we came across from street cleansing ,to obstructions and County council casework.

Pleasing to see completed work on Thursby Road and the new sign at the junction. All new casework has been logged today.

A mixed bag as some streets were in a good condition in terms of cleanliness.

Nice to be invited into Link bridge, a wonderful building , and to see the work that is being carried out in there by the council to bring it up to an even higher spec.
Great to meet with residents today 🙌
