Lead member for community services Cllr Kieron Mallon said: “New housing brings life to the town, and we want to make sure people living in the area know what’s on offer for them.

“Banbury is a great place to live, and just as important as the new homes is the quality of life that residents can enjoy here.

“In a new development like this, creating a sense of belonging from the start is really important.

“Longford Park residents shouldn’t miss this opportunity to meet their neighbours, new or otherwise, and find out what’s going on.
