Diss Town Team (TT) had existed since 2010 as a constituted body but with no legal status. The aims of the new body are similar to that of the TT, to endeavour to make Diss a better place to live, work, visit or locate your business. Diss Town Team consisted of event organisers, Corn Hall representatives, Heritage Triangle Traders, Diss Town Council, The District Council, Park Radio, Rotary, local businesses etc. The DCT’s objective is to attract members from all areas of the community and it is hoped that they will be able to expand their membership accordingly. It is hoped that as a Community Interest Company (CIC) they will be able to generate funding to tackle some of the issues that are detrimentally affecting the town. They will also continue to facilitate and support the majority of events that take place in the town. Diss Town G uide 2 0 2 0 ‐ 2 0 2 1
