Background

Groundwork are making improvements to Suffragette Square in Stockport town centre, on behalf of Stockport Council, and we want to hear your ideas! Our community engagement team will be arranging a series of activities to seek views and opinions on our proposals for the square.

How can you get involved?

We’re looking for local people and businesses to roll up their sleeves and volunteer their time to help us enhance this space. Tasks could involve litter picking, planting, maintenance and helping us collect feedback.

Help us with our design!

We’re running an art competition for children aged 0-19 to help us design artwork that could be featured in the square. We’d like you to design an art piece which is inspired by influential women and female role models who have had a positive impact on people and communities in Stockport. Winners will work alongside local artists to see their designs transformed into art pieces which will be placed in the square.

Please email your submission to Matt.Holker@groundwork.org.uk by 7th January 2024 including your name and age
