Gorebridge and Moorfoot communities are working together on a Community Action Plan 2022-2027.
What is a Community Action Plan you might ask?
This is a way of giving local people an opportunity to have a say on how their communities will develop in the future. We want to know what you would like to see included, how you feel about living here, the good, the bad what is missing and what can be improved.
There will be a virtual engagement room which you can access HERE
For those people who would rather come and visit the “real” room, a two day event will be held at the Gorebridge Beacon from 10 am – 4 pm on Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th February 2022, where you will have the opportunity to discuss and ask any questions with the organisers. More details will follow, but you can be sure that it will be a happy and memorable event and whisper it, fun!
This Community Action Plan will be an important document to take forward and will be used by Midlothian Council Planning and other Departments as a testament to what our community wants to achieve and look like five years from now. Local organisations seeking grant funding for their projects can cite this document in applications. It is a Place Standard approach to community involvement and sets out what is important to those living here. Please become involved, your views really do matter.”
