Wakefield Council has appointed Muse as its Strategic Regeneration Partner for Castleford, marking a significant step in the council's plans to transform the town centre.

The partnership aims to revitalise Castleford's town centre, create new opportunities for residents, businesses and visitors, and attract investment to unlock wider benefits for the community.

Experience and expertise

Muse brings over 40 years of experience delivering large-scale projects in Birmingham, London, Leeds and Manchester. By coordinating the companies involved in these projects, the partnership will help Wakefield Council drive forward the next phase of regeneration in Castleford.

Community input sought

Local residents and businesses will have the opportunity to share feedback on what they would like to see included in future regeneration projects. This feedback will help the Council and Muse shape new proposals.

Simon Dew, Managing Director for Yorkshire and North East at Muse, noted that Castleford is "a town with a strong identity, rich heritage and proud community."
