The Big Local area was previously known as ‘Chell, Chell Heath and Fegg Hayes,’ and incorporates these communities The side-by-side neighbourhoods are a mix of semi-urban and open space, near the northern end of Stoke-on-Trent. The area includes Monks Neil Park.

Stoke North has used Big Local funding to support a range of fun activities to work with people locally to gather their ideas for what they want to do in their area to make it ‘an even better place to live.’ They have made good progress to develop a Big Local plan, that sets out what they plan to do in the coming years.
