Including, Aspley Heath,Danzey, Earlswood, Forshaw Heath, Wood End &Tanworth In Arden. With hard copy leaflets, social media, email at least 4 websites and word of mouth,Parish Notice Boards and now Audio Leaflets  there is no reason why you shouldn't know about the Neighbourhood Development Plan and the part you can play.It is totally up to you.  The Question is Do we Plan or Not plan?  The decision is yours it always comes to me the old saying. "Fail to plan! Plan to Fail"  For those that do want to play a part in the  potential Neighbourhood Development Plan. You are in the right place to keep up to date  Why is the NDP important to us? It quite simply gives us the opportunity to help mold and shape our own community and it's surroundings, infrastructure & potential de

Just picked up from the Redditch Advertiser Stratford District Council could be axed in major shake-up Sourced by Redditch Advertiser 1st March 2014 http://www.redditchadvertiser. co.uk/news/11042363.Stratford_ District_Council_could_be_ axed_in_major_shake_up/ THE future of Stratford District Council hangs in the balance as plans for a massive shake-up in the way local government works in Warwickshire were agreed to be explored further.
