Draft Community Asset Strategy

We Asked

For feedback on proposals for the future of the Council’s buildings and land used by community groups, also known as community assets. The proposals recognised the need to balance the value to the community provided through the community estate against potential financial returns that could be achieved.

You Said

We received 18 responses to an on line survey, of which about 60% were supportive of our proposals. We held a series of workshops with community groups, from which several issues emerged which have been addressed in a revised Community Asset Strategy. You can access this here.

We Did

We produced a revised draft Community Asset Strategy to take account of the responses we received to our consultation. Further consultation will take place with groups currently occupying community assets over the summer to inform a detailed implementation plan.
