The Market Town Welcome project will help the town and its tourism businesses to develop a strong identity for Wooler. The work will be tailored to fit with the emerging plans for investment and improvements arising from the Wooler 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 Glendale Gateway Trust, and will include representatives from the District Council, the local tourism association, heritage groups and local tourism businesses.
Main contact for the Group is Tom Johnston, who may be contacted at mti@wooler.org.uk
Once the plans are developed, the Leadership Group will continue to meet to implement projects and to ensure that the wider Vision for Wooler 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.
