W H Y A R E YO U I M P O R TA N T ? We want this to be a community-led project. So, we have organised three community meetings over the next two months to make sure everyone can have their say in what the outcome will be. We also want to be able to have a measure of how significant this project will be, in order to maximise funding. This needs your input.
