The survey, which opened on 2nd November, provides an opportunity for residents to voice what matters most to them, suggest improvements, and outline priorities for the coming year. Last year, over 8,000 residents participated, leading to actions such as upgrades to the children's play area at Whitaker Park, secured funding for improvements at Edgeside Park, and the achievement of four Green Flag awards for local parks. The council also responded to calls for more community events, with activities held at locations like Waterfoot Square and Haslingden's Big Lamp Bash, and improved resident communication through the launch of Valley Voice.
The survey is open to all Rossendale residents, whether long-term inhabitants or newcomers. It is expected to take approximately 10 minutes to complete and will close on 30th November 2026. Residents can participate online via the council's website.
