Stray Ferret launches big survey on the future of Harrogate town centre
Harrogate’s town centre is at a critical crossroads.
The town has an enviable reputation as a destination for beautiful scenery, good bars and restaurants and independent shops.
But many businesses in the town are struggling. Many were under pressure before coronavirus – the Stray Ferret has reported on several well-loved local businesses ceasing to trade.
So what do you think should be done to improve the town’s fortunes? We want as many people as possible to fill in what will be the most comprehensive survey of its kind on how you use Harrogate town centre and what you think can help revive its economy.
We would like to hear views not only from Harrogate residents but also people in nearby places such as Ripon, Knaresborough, Pateley Bridge and Masham who use Harrogate for work and leisure.

The survey takes about 10 minutes and everyone who takes part will be entered into a prize draw with free gifts - a Stray Ferret umbrella or a 12 pack of special Stray Ferret beer brewed by Harrogate-based Roosters. You have to be over 18 to fill in the survey.
The survey results, which will be published on our website, will help shape the debate.
