SHAFTESBURY COMMUNITY HUB

Shaftesbury Area Community Action Plan

Shaftesbury 2020 - strong, safe and sustainable
In 2020 the Shaftesbury area will be thriving, centered on its Dorset market town, with a strong and distinctive character, with respect for its past and pride in its diverse built, natural and cultural heritage. It will be an area where the community works together, firmly committed to securing a sustained and prosperous future, with a high quality of life and access to services, providing opportunities for ALL who live and work in the town and the surrounding villages.

Shaftesbury Town Council working with Yeovil College
 
In line with the Community Action Plan the Shaftesbury Task Force and Town Council in partnership with Yeovil College have an exciting and innovative vision to provide a venue for social, community, cultural, educational, economic and environmental activities for local people.  It will become the hub of community activity that Shaftesbury needs.

The partnership's purpose will be to help ensure that Shaftesbury will be an area where the community works together, firmly committed to securing a sustained and prosperous future, with a high quality of life and access to services, providing opportunities for ALL who live and work in the town and the surrounding villages.
