Following meetings held in September and October last year Councillor Terry James has convened a group to take forward some of the ideas that arose from the meetings. The group has now met three times. One of the key aims of the group is to create good leadership in the community and give the community ownership of their own future. The group is informal and includes the Chamber of Trade, Kington Tourist Group, Kington Area Regeneration Partnership, Kington Town Council, Marches Access Point, Marches Credit Union, Kington Rural Parish Council, Kington in Bloom and many others. It is intended to bring together the whole community and to be an action group not just a talking shop. Current ideas under discussion include the High Street, marketing Kington as a tourist venue, and improvements to the Place de Marines. Initiatives that have already come out of the Hearts of Herefordshire project include the Kington Chronicle and the Kington Hub based at The Old Police Station. Your ideas and comments are welcome on this site, so please contribute. This is an initiative we would like the whole community to feel part of. Your voices are important so let us know what you are thinking about the future of our town. Put 22nd March in your diaries – tune into BBC2 (we don’t know the time yet). Kington Blackboard is being covered in a television programme about local democracy. Emma Phillips and Christine Forrester were filmed Sunday 28th February in conversation with Anthony Seldon via a video link. He was very interested in the level of debate on our Blackboard! We don’t know how much will be included in the programme but it is great that the Blackboard is getting this kind of recognition. More details to come. Welcome to the 30mph extension in Montford Road. May one look forward to a future 20mph limit in Kington High Street? FGP Kington’s Energy Descent Action Plan is being drafted but it needs your input. Something to get your thoughts going is now available here on the Kington Blackboard – add your thoughts and ideas so that they can be considered at the public meeting on 25th March. |
