Audley & Queen's Park (electoral ward) sits on the edge of Blackburn within the unitary authority of Blackburn with Darwen, England. It combines Victorian and later housing with the leafy open space of Queen's Park, a traditional public park that provides sports pitches, play areas and a focal point for local community events.
The ward's character is shaped by its industrial-era past and ongoing regeneration: former mill areas sit alongside small independent shops, community centres and active local groups. It has a diverse population and a mix of social and economic challenges and strengths, represented locally by councillors on Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council and sustained by grassroots initiatives and leisure facilities.
