The Community Plan is finished….
NO! Everyone’s ideas have been put together in a document but the work has only just begun.

So whats smoking fish or cheese got to do with it......

As soon as I’d finished the Community Plan document at the end of March, my thoughts and energy turned to my garden and my conservatory.  While my focus has (at least some of the time…) been elsewhere, over the last few months, the Plan has been quietly informing some small actions and seeding future possibilities.  

Well, last night was the culmination of the production of the Community Plan, with a launch at Alston Town Hall.  We were really pleased that so many people chose to come along......

I’m just making the very last tweaks to the Community Plan, from comments received recently.  I’m glad that the long haul of consultation, organisation and writing is nearly done – but I’m also really excited about what happens next!  

Here I am, in late January, drafting the final sections of the Community Plan.  After two years of consultation and research, talking to people all over Alston Moor (some with the help of volunteer members of the Alston Moor Partnership) in groups and individually, the end is finally in sight!

We had a really successful meeting on 9 October at Garrigill Village Hall to discuss the Introduction and Section 1 of the Community Plan.  About 30 people came along, and discussed the various ‘bits’ in groups of four to six.  This part of the Plan has now been revised from the comments recorded there and some others received by e-mail.
