Local residents are being invited to download the brand new Rothwell Town App which has now been officially launched. The App is designed to be an easy-to-use hub for all things ‘Rowell’, promoting local shops and businesses, traders as well as community groups, tourism and the town’s visitor economy. The App also includes a heritage trail showcasing some of Rothwell’s historic landmarks and a calendar of events in the town.
The App is supported by Rothwell Town Council and Rothwell Town Centre Partnership and was developed by UK Town Apps. Rothwell Town Council has funded the development of the App, an investment which is intended to benefit the promotion of Rothwell and use new technologies to support the town’s local economy.
As an incentive to download, there will also be a range of local offers available exclusively on the App.
The App is FREE to download on the Apple and Google Stores and banners and posters are currently being displayed around Rothwell to promote the App. Businesses and groups in the town are actively encouraged to take part if they are not on the App already and are invited to contact: [email protected] in the first instance to get involved.
Rothwell Town Cllr Ash Davies, part of the Rothwell App Team, said:
“I have really enjoyed being part of this brilliant community project and it is exciting to see the App go live. We are inviting everyone to download the App and share the word so it can be widely used across Rothwell’s community.”
The App will continue to be a ‘work in progress’ as it is developed further and more features are added.
