WHAT'S YOUR VISION FOR THE YEAR 2025?
People with an eye to the future are being invited to help St Edmundsbury build for the future by taking part in the Vision 2025 consultation.
And young people are being offered the chance to win £100 of vouchers for their school or youth organisation from Ottakar's book shop by coming up with ideas about what their future will look like.
Organisations throughout the borough have already taken part in two roundtable events, in Haverhill and Bury St Edmunds, and they have come up with ideas about what the future will be like in 20 years' time. Now a Vision 2025 document has been drawn up, based on ideas from these meetings, which outlines what people say the council and partners need to do in the coming years to achieve those visionary ideas.
Cllr John Griffiths, St Edmundsbury Borough Council Leader, said:
"Major trends are bound to affect us and we need to be ready for them. We are looking forward to working with our partners towards common goals to make sure that the future of the borough looks bright for everyone who lives and works here."
We are now asking anyone with an interest in the shape of things to come to take a look at this document and send in their comments. Copies of the consultation document, and competition pack, are available by emailing vision2025@stedsbc.gov.uk or phoning 01284 757611. Comments can also be made online by visiting: www.stedmundsbury.gov.uk
