Towns lose out
10:40am Thursday 26th July 2012 in News
Oxfordshire high streets have again missed out on a Government scheme to help them thrive.
The scheme will see 15 towns share £1.5m. The project is backed by retail guru Mary Portas.
The first 12 Portas Pilot towns, who will share a £1.2m fund, were chosen in May.
Oxford, Abingdon, Didcot, and Carterton were among the 370 bids put forward.
