Community owned Trust

Need more information? / provided they for local people / not for new arrivals with development in mind / High quality trustees / many people in the local area will support this and help / Would like to know more about this / provided it’s open to the whole community and financially viable / we already have all that we need – no more quangos please.

 

Do you support the concept of local not-for-profit residential and/or nursing homes for the elderly, within the five parishes? 

Nursing Homes

Comments received;
Support if local residents are given priority / needed quickly / older people especially would be pleased as having to travel to visit loved ones is now very hard. Local people needing care would love to stay local / anything to help young people to stay would be good / wonderful idea / good idea.

 

Do you support the creation of additional services for local young people, such as volunteering activity, training and apprenticeships?

Community Centre

Comments received;
Making best use of all the areas community assets and building is necessary / Counselling and support would be very welcome / we already have access to lots of these services and have many community buildings to use / only needed in Millbrook / new café faciliates would take away trade from existing businesses – need to compliment not compete / could take place in community hall / use community halls for this.
