Since the meeting in September to discuss whether Chedworth needs a Neighbourhood Development Plan a number of people have come forward to look to form a steering group. This process is under the auspices of the Parish Council and the first meeting is to take place this coming Wednesday in the Games Room of the Village Hall. The agenda can be downloaded here.

The initial aim of the group will be to determine how the community would wish the village/parish to develop over the coming 15/20 years. It was very clear from the September meeting that there is little appetite for any large development, but it was noted that there was a dearth of smaller family homes which younger people could afford, the very people who would support institutions such as our school.

The Parish Council was very clear that communication of this project to the wider community was very important and as such we will do our very best to ensure we communicate as widely as possible progress.

If you feel you can add anything to the project either expertise or just enthusiasm, and wish to be involved please get in touch and, if you can, come to the meeting which will be open to all residents.

Kind regards
