Summary of project
This project will develop an engagement programme to discuss the potential to develop a previously proposed wind farm on United Utility land near the village of Denshaw in Oldham. The engagement programme will aim to consult on the proposal, develop the concept of community ownership with the local community as well as discussing how the project can benefit the local community.
