We have been delighted by the response to the first phase of the community conversation about the future of Eccles Town Centre. It has been great to see so many people actively taking part and sharing their views on how Eccles can grow, evolve and re-establish itself as a vibrant centre once again.

With 395 pieces of feedback submitted, and over 275 people attending one of our events, we now have a strong base of insight to work from.

We are now analysing everything we have heard and drawing out the key themes that will help shape the emerging masterplan, which we will share in early 2026.
