Keeping Bracknell Forest prosperous.

Bracknell Forest is a great place to work and, if you are an employer, to grow. Your Conservative Council is working hard to make sure that we continue to thrive even with the challenges ahead for all sectors of the economy.

We promised to deliver a regenerated town centre and with over 16m visitors in its first year, The Lexicon is a great success and something we can all be proud of. We think it’s a great place to work, shop, socialise and eat.

There is still a lot more to be done - our "Vision2032" Masterplan sets out a bold vision for Civic Quarter and Station Quarter - including delivery 1000 new homes 

  • It has been your local Conservatives who have stayed committed to the regeneration of the town centre, when others criticised, we stood firm.
  • Our commitment to residents is to continue the regeneration and over the next 4 years we will be delivering the next exciting phases.
  • Your Council will be supporting the next phases of the redevelopment of “The Deck” as well as the makeover of Princess Square. We will also deliver new housing including much needed social housing, in future schemes, helping the whole town centre flourish and grow, providing a rich 18 hour economy.
  • The world of work is changing and we will continue to work closely with all our employers as they look to their futures, and we are committed to helping new companies, start-ups and entrepreneurs. We have recently worked with a partner to turn the old Council offices at Easthampstead House into a location for creative related companies to start and grow.
  • Bracknell Forest has the highest employment rate in the country or put the other way around we have the lowest unemployment rate – we will ensure that Bracknell Forest remains a great place to live and work

We will continue to:

  • make sure our new Local Plan enables the development of employment areas as well as the right mix and location of houses for their employees.
  • remain committed to completing the town centre regeneration.
  • work with our local businesses to demonstrate that Bracknell Forest is open for business.
  • encourage existing companies in the area to remain as well as seeking to attract new companies.
