Harberton Parish Neighbourhood Plan Consultation

2023 Consultation

Community Conversation
10th June 2023

A facilitated ‘Community Conversation’ was held at Harbertonford CE Primary School on the morning of 10th June 2023 with the purpose get a sense of what the main priorities and objectives should be for the Neighbourhood Plan.  It was also intended to show up any areas where further, more detailed consultation might be needed.

Participants were divided into groups of about five to discuss a series of three questions:

• What do we love about living here?
• What challenges and opportunities do we foresee over the next 10 years?
• What would you most like to see happen here by 2033, and how could that be achieved?

Volunteer “scribes” took notes of what each group said.  The following information is/will be available on this website:

• A two page summary of the main issues that arose (PDF)
• A seven page document that summaries summarises the conversations based on notes made on the day and on debriefings from the scribes (PDF)
• All flip chart notes made by scribes written up. (Yet to be shared)
• Photographs of flip charts notes. (Yet to be shared)

If you couldn’t make it to the event, you can still let us know your views on the main questions discussed (listed above).  And everyone can also comment on the priorities and ideas that emerged – do you agree with them? If so, or if not, let us know why.  Email us clerk@harbertonparishcouncil.org
