It resulted in some major and tangible achievements, including the building of the new Community Centre. This Parish Plan comes at a time of change for the Parish itself, for example the potential impact of the bypass on both the economy and well-being of our community. There is also wider change in the structures of local government with the disappearance of Tynedale Council, and the creation of the new Northumberland wide unitary council in 2009. Parish Plans are important for three main reasons. Firstly, they identify issues of importance to our community through the public consultation that goes with the plan. Secondly, they provide the evidence to support applications for public, private and charitable funding to support initiatives or projects identified by groups in the Parish. Thirdly, they provide information for a range of organisations – for example local and regional government, the health service, and other public, private and third sector organisations – about the Parish, the services it needs and the potential for investment as partners in our future. In developing the Parish Plan local residents have been consulted and involved in a range of ways to ensure that the plan reflects the main interests and priorities of the Parish. Following approval of the plan by the Parish Council on 10 April 2008, the Parish Council and Parish Plan group then undertook a detailed set of consultation meetings with potential partners to refine the action plan and get their support for its implementation. We have been delighted by the positive response we have received and look forward to working with our partners to deliver on the action plan. On behalf of the Parish Council I would like to thank the volunteers on the Steering Group which has led the development of the plan. I would also like to thank the Haydon News and its volunteers for distributing the questionnaire and for hosting regular updates on the progress of the plan, Community Action Northumberland for their support, guidance and funding and, of course, to all the residents of Haydon Parish who have attended meetings, completed questionnaires and made sure that their views were incorporated in the Plan. It is OUR plan. We hope as many of you as possible will get involved in turning it into reality.

Introduction 2 Population profile 3 The housing needs survey 4 Research findings 5 A selection of individual responses 14 Key messages from the survey 15 Appendix 1: The questionnaire 16 Appendix 2: Parish Council covering letter 26 2 Introduction In November 2019, Haydon Parish Council commissioned Community Action Northumberland (CAN) to undertake a Local Housing Needs Survey for the Haydon parish covering the village of Haydon Bridge, Chesterwood, Langley and all outlying hamlets within the parish. This was designed to provide information useful to the Parish Council and Neighbourhood Planning Steering Group as part of work designed to assess the wider needs of the community. Since April 2017, CAN has been funded by Northumberland County Council, and more recently by Community-led Homes, to establish a Community-led Housing Hub to act as a support platform for local communities in the area wishing to explore the potential for community- led housing in its various forms and to deliver local affordable homes where they are needed. This hub is called ‘Communities CAN (North East).’ This work has been funded through the government’s Community Housing Fund and has sought to support all stages of development, including the initial identification of housing need. As part of this work, CAN has been funded to undertake Local Housing Needs Surveys where requested to do so and where there is a realistic prospect of any need identified resulting in the delivery of additional affordable homes. In undertaking Housing Needs Surveys, CAN follows the principles set out in national guidelines drawn up by the Rural Housing Enablers Network as follows: 1.
