Leaders have their say on Horwich breaking away from Bolton Council

Leaders have had their say on the calls by Horwich Town Council to consider breaking away from Bolton Council.
Town councillors wrote to Communities Secretary Robert Jenrick after they passed two key motions at a meeting of the town council. 
The first looks to reconsider Horwich’s place in Bolton Council, as town councillors believe Horwich’s voice isn’t heard when it comes to funding or planning.
The second motion wants to review Horwich’s current boundary, which doesn’t include all of Middlebrook or Horwich Parkway train station.
Cllr Steven Chadwick, Horwich’s deputy mayor, said the approval of plans to build 48 homes on Pickup Fields and delays to Horwich getting a modern health centre were just some of the reasons many residents feel it would be better to not be part of Bolton.
