The Greenfield Valley Trust has thanked the public for their ”tremendous response” to a recent future strategy consultation ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The Trust is preparing a strategy for the future of the Valley for the next ten years. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Over the summer everyone with an interest in the future of the Greenfield Valley was invited to say what they thought and nearly 130 people took up the opportunity. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

They answered questions online or on paper and, between them, put forward hundreds of ideas and comments. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

After extending past the original 30 September end date to make sure every comment was collected, the consultation period formally ended on Friday 8th October. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Gwladys Harrison, the Chair of the Greenfield Valley Trust, said ‘We are delighted that so many people were prepared to help us by sharing their thoughts and ideas.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“This reflects how important the Valley is to local people and visitors.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“The Trust Board now wants to consider all these comments as it draws up the Valley’s ten-year strategy.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“On behalf of the Board I would like to send our thanks to everyone who commented.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Brenda Harvey, Greenfield Valley Trustee and lead on the preparation of the strategy, said: “This has been a tremendous response and we want to thank everyone.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“We have already started analysing what has been said and soon we will publish a summary of the responses on our website at insert link to future page on website and in our visitor centre for everyone to see.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“We are looking forward to using this information in preparing our strategy.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​
