A team of contractors has been appointed to deliver the first phase of the Shop Front Grant Improvement Scheme on Kirkham High Street. The project is designed to restore and enhance the shop frontages in Kirkham Town Centre by re-instating their historic, pre-WW1 style.

Kirkham Town Centre is about to be transformed by four artists whose creative talents will be unleashed on local shop windows. Each artist has been commissioned to come up with designs inspired by lines from a Christmas Carol. The local community have been asked to rewrite the well-known, “Twelve Days of Christmas “, by changing it to the Twelve Days of Kirkham, with each day inspiring a window design.
