Residents Response to an Expanded Co-op

• When the question “To increase shopping choice, which of the two edge of town centre option would you favour? Or do you have any alternatives to add?” a large portion of the responses wrote in that they wanted an expanded Co-op instead of a entirely new store.

• One person commented that they would rather have a larger store within the town that sold a wider range of stock than two smaller shops with less of a range of products.
