The Market Town Welcome project will help the town and its tourism businesses to develop a strong identity for Alnwick. The work will be tailored to fit with the emerging plans for investment and improvements arising from the Alnwick Retail Distinctiveness Project, but will be co-ordinated by a distinct Leadership Group. This group, which has been convened specially for the project, will be co-ordinated by Alnwick Community Development Trust, and will include representatives from the Alnwick District Council, the local tourism association, heritage groups and local tourism businesses.

Main contact for the Group is Anne Shilton, who may be contacted at anne.shilton@acdt.org.uk

Once the plans are developed, the Leadership Group will continue to meet to implement projects and to ensure that the wider investment programme for Alnwick takes account of the Market Town Welcome plan.

We hope that this website will develop as an online community during the course of the project. Feel free to use the discussion forum to give us your thoughts.

Post your digital photos on the site. Show us what you like or dislike about Alnwick. What would you show visitors? What would you steer them away from? What makes you proud of your town? Whether you have a full professional kit or a mobile phone, we want to see your images.
