Do you have views on how Burnham on Sea High Street could be improved?

There are opinion boards where you can leave your feedback about what you would like to see on the High Street located in the Princess Hall, the Library and the Tourist Information Centre.

Like many others, Burnham on Sea’s high street has suffered immensely during the Covid-19 pandemic.

A combination of changing consumer habits (from face to face to online), lower visitors’ numbers due to Covid-19 restrictions and general shift from retail to leisure and experience observed in the High Streets generally has put Burnham-on-Sea in a vulnerable position.

Back in 2019, the Government commissioned, as part of its Plan for the High Streets, a High Street Taskforce, which is an alliance of place-making experts. The Taskforce has been set up to strengthen local leadership in high streets and town centres by providing information, advice, training, knowledge and data helping people to make a positive difference to their local communities and will be providing expert support to Burnham on Sea until 2024.
