Pride of Place in Slough
Slough Borough Council would like to find out which place in the borough fills residents with the most pride and for them to vote for it in the ‘Pride of Place’ poll.
There are ten places to choose from such as Herschel Park and the Horlicks Building.
To vote, simply visit the Pride of Place website. The poll is easy, fun and a great way to get to know your local area in more detail.
The Pride of Place poll is part of the Government’s ‘Connect to your council’ campaign which aims to encourage citizens across England to access their local authority services online anytime, anywhere.
Residents can now use Slough Borough Council’s website to find out anything from planning information to applying for school places.
Ruth Bagley, chief executive for Slough Borough Council, said: “Slough has many interesting places and buildings to visit and the town should be proud of them.
“Many peoples’ perception of Slough is that it is an industrial town, but we have many open, green places which people can enjoy and some very historic buildings.
“It will be interesting to see which of the ten places will be Slough’s favourite.”
Commissioner for leisure, cultural and community services, Cllr Julia Long, added: “Slough is rich in history and has many beautiful places to visit.
“The buildings we have here are integral to Slough and make it the town it is today. I do hope people will vote for their favourite, though it may be hard to choose as there are so many.”
The Pride of Place poll is part of a nation-wide initiative, and can be accessed until 30 November 2007 after which the results will be released.
