Making news in Kirkby Stephen
The Roundup
Community plan launched
The Upper Eden Community Plan has been launched. If that sounds like something of a distant issue to you then think again - it's an important document that a group of Eden people have spent a long time developing, and it concerns all our futures, and those of our children.
One of the most important issues dealt with in the plan is housing. If rural life as we know it is dying, many people believe it's the lack of affordable housing that is killing it. Have a look at the proposals contained in the plan. It covers many other areas such as transport, social issues, keeping the local economy viable and boosting our educational opportunities.
The plan is available to the non-wired world at the Community and Council
Centre, but a quicker way to see it is to click this link . It really is worth having a look .
