As part of a new series of reports on the towns in our region, we are looking in depth into what makes Brandon a great place to live and what can be done to improve the area.

Over the next few weeks we will be asking you, our readers, to tell us what you love about your town as well as what you think needs to be improved.

By taking our online survey, you can tell us the main issues facing the town and give your opinion on where the town should go in the future.

This will not only cover the bad and the ugly, we also want to highlight the great things about the town, the community spirit, the parks, and the people that make it tick.

We want to tell the untold stories about Brandon and underline the many positives there are to living in the town.
