The town is 'on the up' and is set for even more change this year
'We are passionate and protective about our town and if there's a problem we won’t stand for people slagging it off - only we’re allowed to do that!' These are the words of Neil Dunne who lives in Kirkby with his young family. Like many residents, Neil is fiercely protective of the town and wants the best for its future.
He said: 'There's been a massive change in the place over the last ten years. I think with covid, it's put a two year delay on everything but I have heard about some of the investment coming into Kirkby. 'There's used to be a lot of wasteland around here. Back in the day, there was nothing here in Kirkby like community centres and playgrounds so there was nothing to do for young people but that is changing a bit now. The area is on the rise.
