ABOUT CASTLEFIELD FORUM
Our Castlefield is the website of the Castlefield Forum.
The Forum was set up to contribute to and influence Castlefield as a locality, whilst conserving and enhancing its heritage assets, for the benefit of all members of the community and visitors to the area. It became a Charitable Incorporated Organisation in 2019.
The Forum consists of a board of Volunteer Trustees and several action groups who work to meet these objectives.
It’s a great way to meet others in the community, to have a say in what happens and to give something back to this amazing place.
If you’d like to join any of our action groups, please email us.
