Love Northampton round-table discussion March 4
Northampton town centre is much maligned.
Empty retail units, litter, homelessness and crime are all issues people return to.
There is, however, a movement which says things aren't as bad as they are made out to be - in fact, they are pretty good.
Some people say there is plenty going on, including new projects and schemes which are already taking place or could transform the town.
There is a movement which says people should love Northampton, stop complaining about the problems and start coming up with solutions.
ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio Northampton launched our Love Northampton project last year, with the aim of championing these projects while bringing together the people trying to improve the town - as well as discussing the problems which do exist.
As part of the project, presenter Stuart Linnell is holding a series of round-table discussions every Monday between 6-7pm.
On Monday, March 4 our guests were town historian Mike Ingrams, county councillor Sam Rumens and autism activist Ife Thomas.
