Since covering the legacies of the New Town development in Hatfield and the council's plans, the WHT will now look at what changes are needed in the town.
Last year, the WHT covered many shop closures in Hatfield, which now means there are no clothing stores left in the town centre, a temporary Post Office, and a market that is struggling.
Our town is not alone in this - according to the Centre for Retail Research, more than 11,000 major high street outlets have gone bust from 2008 to 2018, affecting almost 140,000 employees.
