After an extensive consultation process commencing in 2003, The Accent Group has been selected from the final shortlist to become Craven District Council's Strategic Partner for Skipton Developments.

QUOTE FROM THE LEADER OF THE COUNCIL

“This is a historic moment for the Council and a milestone for the future prosperity and success of Skipton.  Over the past four years, we have listened long and hard to what Craven residents have had to say about the development.  Their comments and opinions have played a significant part in determining how we go forward”, said Carl Lis, Leader of Craven District Council.

“The proposals put forward by the Accent Group will help maintain Skipton as Yorkshires’ premier market town through the creation of new sustainable housing, new retail outlets as well as a contemporary cultural centre.

We were especially enthused to hear of the Accent Group's willingness to engage and work with the local community” added Carl.
