About One Crewe
Rich in industrial heritage and home to many great businesses. Perfectly placed for motorway and rail travel yet close to open countryside. Sound like anywhere you know? Yes – we’re talking Crewe.
There’s no denying the obstacles facing Crewe like many other post-industrial towns. The town centre continues to suffer setbacks with regeneration and the railway infrastructure remains dated and in need of investment.
Look beyond that to wider Crewe and the pockets of hardworking local people doing good for their communities.
The major employers and manufacturers of global repute. The small businesses and community organisations all doing their bit to support jobs, wellbeing and livelihoods.
Imagine a safe place to harness that drive and enthusiasm and to celebrate all that is great and good about Crewe. A place to ‘big’ up Crewe and restore civic pride. Introducing One Crewe.
One Crewe is built on core values which epitomise the town and surrounds:
People powered:
Crewe has a proud industrial heritage. The people of Crewe built the town from the ground up, creating a place of celebrated businesses across all sectors including manufacturing, digital and creativity.
Crewe gets things done:
There’s an active and engaged community, ready to roll up its sleeves and embrace change. People care about their green spaces, wellbeing of young people and love to nurture talent in sports.
Building connections:
Crewe is a place of potential, building pathways for skills, careers and living. It joins the dots between surrounding towns, ideally positioned to benefit residents, visitors and businesses.
Green and leafy:
While well connected to road and rail travel, Crewe has lush countryside on its doorstep. There’s a rural vibe.

"There’s a genuine need, particularly in the current climate, to inform the local community about all of the good things that are going on in and around the town. Most importantly, we need to inspire people to believe and take pride in Crewe again." Meet our Steering Committee
