This important event was jointly hosted by the Northampton Chronicle & Echo & the Friends of Northampton Racecourse on July 20th.  The Summit gave an opportunity for leaders in Northampton to hear about the ideas for improving The Racecourse and to become involved in a partnership plan to progress these ideas forward.  Ann Tate, University of Northampton, Sally Keeble MP, Brian Binley MP and Mike Hayes, CEO of the West Northants Development Corporation were just a few of the 26 leaders who accepted the invitation and heard about the innovative ideas.

The next stage of the development will be the formation of The Racecourse Partnership Board which will meet on August 16th at 2pm.
