In August CDT launched the ‘Carluke Conversation’ with the intention of gathering as many community voices as possible. Parallel to this process is the creation of a Stage 2 Scottish Land Fund application for Carluke High Mill which will also be underpinned by the evidence gathered by community consultation. As such the ‘Carluke Conversation’ will enable to CDT to develop broader objectives which could then be applied to projects and initiatives. The aims of the ‘Carluke Conversation’ consultation process were to; 1. Work closely with Carluke Development Trust to identify effective methods to capture community priorities and aspirations for the development of Carluke parish. 2. Engage with communities within Carluke using a variety of consultation methods. 3. Explore four core themes to identify development priorities including; a. Employment, education, training and volunteering b. Health & wellbeing c. Communal greenspaces d. Community engagement and support. 4. Explore emerging themes (e.g. town centre regeneration) arising from the open-ended conversation process. 5. Provide strategic analysis of the resulting data resulting in recommended strategic goals for CDT. 3.0 Consultation Methodology Summary of consultation conducted to-date, lead, methods, timescale and response count. <ul style="display: flex;"><li style="flex:1">Description </li><li style="flex:1">Method(s) </li></ul>Questionnaire Qwizdom <ul style="display: flex;"><li style="flex:1">Timescale </li><li style="flex:1">Response count / </li></ul>attendees <ul style="display: flex;"><li style="flex:1">528 </li><li style="flex:1">Community Questionnaire </li><li style="flex:1">8th September 2017 - </li></ul>13th November 2017 <ul style="display: flex;"><li style="flex:1">21st September 2017 </li><li style="flex:1">Community engagement session </li></ul>(CDT AGM) 33 14.0 Summary: what the community has told us 25.0 Proposed strategic goals The evidence gathered by the ‘Carluke Conversation’ has resulted in the suggestion of three broad strategic goals and associated projects for CDT.
