Clitheroe Chamber of Trade and Commerce have been successful in securing funding through Lancashire County Developments Limited to design and develop a town centre website: www.visitclitheroe.co.uk

The website will be open to all businesses in Clitheroe and Clitheroe Chamber of Trade and Commerce are seeking your help with ideas for the new website.  They want everyone to get involved and give feedback.  With work due to start in May there is now a four week consultation period where everyone is encouraged to submit as many ideas as possible for consideration on the website.

Ian Lloyd, President of Clitheroe Chamber of Trade and Commerce said, “Securing this funding is a massive bonus for both the Chamber and the Town Centre. We have been looking at developing a website for some time and with the support of the LCDL we can finally start to work towards this goal and really highlight what Clitheroe has to offer as a shopping and tourism destination.”

VisitClitheroe.co.uk is going to be a global showcase for the town and there are already plans to not only feature the diverse array of local businesses but also local events, tourist attractions and transport links in a bid to become the focal point for both tourists and local residents.

Daniel Williams of Whitesands Media commented, ‘VisitClitheroe.co.uk is a great name with massive potential and we need as many people as possible to get involved and tell us what should be included on the site. There are the obvious shop and business listings and many events planned for Clitheroe but with so many reasons to visit the town centre we need to make sure we include as much as we can on the site and really showcase Clitheroe.’

Comments are being encouraged through a simple online form that can be found at www.visitclitheroe.co.uk or email comments can be sent direct to email@visitclitheroe.co.uk. The consultation period is due to run from 12th April to 16th May and the website is due to be launched on 30th August 2011.
