In October 2024, Shrewton Parish Council decided to have a new Neighbourhood Plan for Shrewton. This is so the community can control and limit the impact of unwanted plans of government and commercial developers in the future, and to help shape the village to meet the community's needs. In accordance with the Localism Act, the Parish Council established the Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group (NPSG) with volunteers to develop the Neighbourhood Plan. To be credible the Plan must have as much community engagement, involvement and input as possible. The Plan should be ready for a Referendum by the village and surrounding community before end 2025. If the referendum shows that the plan is supported by the community, it will then be given to Wiltshire Council for them to incorporate unchanged into Wiltshire Council's development plans. Information and data are already being gathered and people engaged, but now we need you to tell us more by filling in this first questionnaire.

We don't have much time to complete the Neighbourhood Plan - probably as little as 8 months - and the signs are that the Government want to shorten this further.

Please ensure that you have submitted your questionnaire by 31 January 2025.

If you are completing a paper questionnaire, please can you use Block capitals. If you make a mistake, you can cross the error through and then write in the correct entry by the side. Please deliver or post your completed questionnaire to Rock House, The Hollow, SP3 4JY or to Rivendell, Nett Road, SP3 4HB

These details are required as we can only react and use the input of those persons who are residents or who work in the neighbourhood. The results of the questionnaires will be used only to advise on the preparation of the Shrewton Neighbourhood Plan. No personal information will be shared with any other person or organisation. Thank you.
