Friends
Groups
As
a Historic Borough and Market Town, with a Royal Castle, three
railway stations and a Racecourse, the first in the western
hemisphere to hold an election by secret ballot, any big decisions
were made for Pontefract by Pontefract people. That stopped in 1974
when the Borough of Pontefract ceased
to be and the key decisions about the town's growth, investment
and well-being moved to Wakefield.
The Friends Groups that are coming together and thriving are
great examples of taking back some say in decisions to improve our
Town.
If you can, please consider joining or supporting one of the
groups, or passing their details on to a friend who might like to get
involved or help.
