Borough Plan Update Thank you if you took part in our recent consultation into the Borough Plan, telling us your priorities for the Wokingham Borough. Since then, we’ve been sharing your feedback with our stakeholders. A special conference is planned for the public sector, town and parish councils, business leaders, and the community and voluntary sector, to consider the Borough’s priorities and its challenges. Local government used to be seen as having all the answers, but this is no longer the case. So we work with our partners to support people to help themselves, who can then also help others. This dialogue with you and our stakeholders is shaping the new five-year Borough Plan, setting out a vision of what sort of place we want to live in and how we can all contribute to achieving this. The engagement document and survey can be found on the current consultation webpages on our website. More information: www.wokingham.gov.uk (search ‘finished consultations’)
