Since May, representatives from 3 Rivers, GTC and NDDC have been meeting regularly to determine the best way to bring about the proposed changes in how local services are delivered to the Town and surrounding Parishes and how to bring fruition plans for new Sports and Fitness facilities for the whole area.

Whilst it has not been possible to notify the Public at every turn, the three Partners are committed to presenting a clear picture of the true situation, what is being done by them to address key issues, what are the real options and what are the hard decisions the Community and Partners must make.

A joint ROADSHOW will tour the whole area during August and September with the aim of raising awareness and stimulating discussion between Residents and their Town and Parish Councillors. Representatives from 3 Rivers, and NDDC will be on hand to capture your and answer your questions.

Come to the ROADSHOW and get the real picture!

You will again be able to discuss your views and questions with representatives from the three partnering organisations. Most importantly, you will be invited to register your support for the proposals.
