A better Kettering starts with us
Have your voice heard.
Help shape Kettering.
Empty shops filled. Stronger local businesses. More reasons to come into town. What would you like to see change?
Revive Kettering brings local people, ideas and businesses together to help shape a town centre that reflects what we actually want.
Start with the ideas below, then tell us what Kettering needs in the Facebook community.
Why Revive Kettering exists
We know what’s missing.
Let’s make it useful.
Ask people what Kettering needs and the answers come quickly. But those ideas don’t always reach the people who could help make them happen.
Local businesses face rising costs, quieter periods and changing habits. Knowing what people actually want can help them make better decisions.
It starts with listening to Kettering.
Conversations, polls and local ideas help build a clearer picture of what our town centre needs.
That gives entrepreneurs and existing businesses something useful to work with: real demand from the people they hope to serve.
Three parts, working together
Local ideas. Our own funding.
Stronger businesses.
Listening is the starting point. Funding and practical business support help turn the strongest opportunities into something real.

The town centre we could build
Imagine those empty windows lit up again.
With businesses people actually asked for. More independent shops. More local jobs. More reasons to spend time in Kettering.
That takes time, support and people getting involved. We’re building the connections and funding that could help make it possible.
Help build our own local funding.
A £2 lottery ticket gives you a chance to win a prize balance to spend locally, while helping build funding for Kettering.
As participation grows, so does what we can put towards businesses, improvements and community projects.
