Community Led Plan
A community-led plan is a communities own vision for its future and an action plan on how to achieve it. What we need and can do for our community changes over time but we all want Wadsworth to be a great place to live for all residents and provide the facilities that will enhance our lives.
Community-led plans are the vehicle that enables rural communities to make themselves heard and initiate actions to improve the quality of life locally. Put simply – it gives a community a voice, which will become increasingly important in these difficult economic times. It also provides organisations that serve the community the information they need to provide a service that meets needs and works.
