  • North Elmham Community Plan
    NORTH ELMHAM COMMUNITY PLAN April 2011 Welcome to your Community Plan! The North Elmham Community Planning Group was founded at a public meeting in November 2008. Statutory guidance called „Creating Strong, Safe and Prosperous Communities‟ has been issued making it a requirement for local authorities like Breckland to involve communities in the decision making process which shapes amenities and services affecting everyday life. The aim of the Community Planning Group has been to find out what people think about village life and village facilities and to ask what changes they would like to see. At all stages the project was well supported by the Norfolk Rural Community Council with funding provided by them, by ITV Rural Action East, the Norfolk Community Foundation, Breckland Council, BT Community Connections and North Elmham Parish Council. The organising committee formed at the public meeting met regularly to draft the questionnaire which would provide an objective view of people‟s feelings about village life. Great emphasis was placed on writing questions which were neutral and did not encourage anyone to answer in a particular way – that was not an easy task. The Parochial Church Council drafted its own questions relevant to the Church as a place of worship. By the spring of 2010 the questionnaire was ready. In 2008, North Elmham had a population of 1,416 people of all ages, living in 665 households. When the questionnaire was distributed in May and June 2010, a team of over 30 volunteers successfully delivered to 583 households. Generally, one form was left for each household to complete, although more copies were provided on request.
