Shropshire’s Big Conversation continues

UPDATE (2): In a further post (17/2/17) the Council have let it be known that the “Closing date for the survey is Sunday 12 March 2017.” They do not say if this is because so far very few residents have responded, the quoted number “over 220” suggests that is could well be the reason for both these extensions.
UPDATE: On Monday (9/1/17) in this Newsroom item Shropshire Council announced that “The survey is now extended, and will be closed on Tuesday 28 February 2017.”
The hope is that more Shropshire residents will engage in this “conversation”.


Today Shropshire Newsroom (15/12/16) has announced the next phase of Shropshire’s Big Conversation. It says Shropshire residents and organisations are being invited to give their views on what more the council can do in response to financial challenges arising from continuing cuts in government funding.
This new Big Conversation survey asks residents questions about their community, health and the local economy – the three main priorities in the council’s draft Corporate Plan. The survey is planned to close at the end of January 2017.
To participate in the survey (which will take about half an hour to complete) visit the Big Conversation “How can I get involved?” page. Alternatively a PDF version of the survey suitable for printing can be downloaded here. Printed copies of the survey can be requested by calling 0345 678 9028.
