Welcome to Kettering, a distinctive and fun town rich in character and heritage.
Kettering is at the very heart of North Northamptonshire, the UK’s biggest single growth area outside of London. Given its central location, Kettering is perfectly placed to benefit from the significant growth opportunities in housing and employment that are being delivered in the area.
Something exciting is happening in Kettering. A strong vision is being delivered that will see the redevelopment of the town centre into a place that is characterful, distinctive and fun.
The public sector partners are aligned in working to improve the offer for jobs, education and shopping in the town and surrounding area, backed by well developed planning policies and investment.
Central to Kettering’s vision is the understanding that something special is needed if the town is to effectively compete with internet shopping and large scale shopping centres. In response, Kettering will offer an experience that will create the desire for visitors to want to return again and again. Specialist quarters will complement one another and new developments will be sympathetic to the history and heritage of the town making it stand out locally creating a truly desirable place to shop, visit and relax.
