What is Happening in Northampton Town Centre?
As part of our efforts to revitalise the town centre, we are introducing several key initiatives to enhance the experience for everyone. These initiatives include:

The Purple Flag is an accreditation awarded to Northampton Town Centre for recognising the partnership commitment to creating a dynamic, secure, and vibrant evening and night time economy, successfully held since 2019.

It only takes one
The It Only Takes One campaign, created with the OPFCC and local Sexual Violence organisations, aims to:
- share safety advice for nights out
- raise awareness about harassment and inappropriate behaviour
- equip bystanders with the knowledge and confidence to challenge unacceptable behaviour
