As the council sets the budget for next year, this is what people think of council spending.
Oldham council is well on its way to setting the budget for the next year. That means significant decisions are being made about how the council will spend its money - from everyday services like rubbish collections to transforming town centres with ambitious regeneration projects.
“They seem to be wasting a lot of money on various things like all this new building,” Janet said, gesturing to the temporary fencing erected outside the Spindles shopping centre. "Kids need somewhere safe where they can spend time. But there’s nothing to come up into Oldham for.”“They’re our next generation, the next ones who are going to stand up and say ‘this is our town’ - and what do they have to say about our town? Nothing.”“The kiddies don’t have enough," she said. "They live on these big estates and don’t have anywhere to go. They have to go miles and miles to find somewhere nice to play out.
Merril, who lives in Chadderton and grew up in the area, said she remembered how there used to be carnivals in the park in Alexandra and music concerts in the town hall.
