All are welcome to have their say in the future of Swindon in the current round of Let's Talk Swindon events.

The town centre is key to Swindon Borough Council's plans, with ambitions to develop it from a past dominated by retail into a future destination where people live, work, socialise and learn.
A spokesperson said: "In recent weeks, we’ve shared proposals for a new performance and cultural venue in the town centre, with capacity for national touring shows, as well as other large-scale events. 
"This work has been brought together in a document called the ‘Vision for the Heart of Swindon’ that sets out eight ambitions for the town centre.

"If you would like to hear more about these ambitions, while also having the opportunity to raise local issues or ask questions about our services, please attend one of our upcoming Let’s talk Swindon events or drop-in sessions."

This month's Let's Talk Swindon gatherings are set for:

Tuesday, 19 November at New College, Swindon. SN3 1AH from 6.30pm until 8.30pm (arrival from 6.00pm)
