A WENVOE FORUM <\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

C<\/strong>onsidering Today and Tomorrow<\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n

Please can you help?<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Following a call out issued at the beginning of March a small group of like-minded people have met on Zoom to create a think tank or forum to bring together the ideas and aspirations of the village.<\/p>\n

We have lived through a sometimes strange and troubling year or more, with the path through to an acceptable existence alongside Covid still a bit un-clear and a pressing future need for a rebuilt and changed economy that takes account of climate change and environmental issues. However, throughout all, the Wenvoe community has proved itself caring, resourceful and in good spirit and well up to the job of helping to create that future in a very positive way.<\/p>\n

The future belongs to all of us and particularly to the younger residents, families, children and young people who will be living with the consequences of plans, decisions and actions taken now for the rest of their lives. It\u2019s important that everyone feels able to have a say in shaping the plan.<\/p>\n

A \u201cConsidering Today and Tomorrow<\/strong><\/em>\u201d may sound a little grand, but be assured a grand plan is usually made up of lots of small actions.<\/p>\n

So how can you contribute your ideas and help to see them come to life.<\/p>\n

1.The group would be delighted to have a few more individual members so that it is more representative of the whole community. If you are a family with children, a young person, the owner of a local business or any resident of the village, with an hour to spare every 3 weeks or so the please contact us –<\/p>\n

e-mail:\u00a0 gareth.stone1@btinternet.com<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

2.The forum is keen to build on the very strong community groups and networks that already exist. We don\u2019t want to duplicate what is already happening but to plug any gaps. Sharing information and ideas is the key. Individual members of the forum could link directly with your group or you could put forward a representative. Please make contact via e-mail gareth.stone1@btinternet.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

3.<\/strong>We have already discussed lots of ideas and would love to know whether you think we are on the right track.<\/p>\n

We have created a very short 2 minute on line survey<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/span> \u2013 please fill it in there:-<\/p>\n

4.<\/strong>We want to hear from people of all ages so several members of the household can each complete their own survey.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We want to hear your ideas too, please send them to gareth.stone1@btinternet.com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Thank you, we\u2019re looking forward to hearing from you.<\/p>\n
