Onwards and Upwards

HI ya,

Iv'e not been on for a while, been really busy working. Anyway here I am, just to say that things in Paisley are relly starting to happen again. There is a lot of activity going on in the corridors of power, change of councillors etc, some of the new lot have interesting ideas that they want to gain support for.

The regeneration of the Town centre is in the process of becoming a major project that will see Paisley brought back to the fore as a major town in Scotland again.

Aye, of course its going to be a long road but there are groups in the town that are really getting behind the whole idea of Paisley being a great place to live and work once more.

Know what you can do to help bring Paisley back up again?

Get involved, go to meetings, ask your elected representatives if they are behind all the initiatives that are in the process being implimented and ask them what you can do to help.

The previously much maligned Paisley Vision Board has seen sense and has started to involve more of the regular folk of the town in the plans for the regeneration of it.

New developments at the Cross and elsewhere will see more people living in the town centre, which will bring more foot traffic into the town, which in turn will encourage shops to re-open to cater for the increased numbers.

Experts in the field of regeneration, during a recent town visit said 'Paisley has some of the most attractive, diverse and significant buildings of archetectural merit that we have seen'.

Make no mistake Paisley is starting to get talked about again and this time for all the right reasons. Keep you ear out and listen and not only that tell folk yourself that we are on the up again and its time to say it once more.......................

I'M PROUD TO BE A BUDDIE

Go on!
