An online, virtual consultation has been launched to ask people across the borough for their thoughts on plans to invest £25m into the town through the Towns Fund Programme.

Rotherham’s Town Deal specifically focuses on a number of projects deliverable within five years.

The plans include better connectivity into town along pleasant, tidy, open areas that are accessible to all, improved landscapes and new homes. The plans complement works already taking place to revitalise the town centre through the Masterplan.

It's the Yorkshire Makers & Crafters Market this Saturday (10th October), featuring a fantastic mix of local crafters, makers, artists and bakers.

If you would like to book a stall for any future markets for only £7, please call the markets team on 01709 365021 or email markets@rotherham.gov.uk

Don't forget it's still free to park all day in the Drummond Street, Forge Island and Wellgate Multi-Storey Car Parks on Saturdays too.

The apartments which form part of Westgate Chambers in the town centre are really coming along now.

The external cladding is in the process of being fitted and kitchens have been installed in the first 10 apartments.

The development will include retail, leisure, and hospitality space along with 61 modern one, two and three bedroom apartments.
