Community Consultation
Posters and ideas box to be placed in libraries, community centres, shops, etc. These will allow people to get a feel for the project and contribute ideas.
At this stage we are looking for the following to come from it:
- Ask for the public to come up with a name (or choose from a selection of names)
- Create a database of artists and craftspeople who might want to help with structures
- Ask for opinions on the types of structures they would like to see:
- Artworks
- Seating
- Interpretation panels
- Signage
- Shelters
- Contact community councils
- Contact local interest groups such as:
- History societieso Wildlife societies
- Bike and commuter groups
- School groups
- Disability groups
- Geology groups
- Local commerce and businesses
- We intend to create some posters and flyers along with a form and a box so that people can tick boxes and voice opinions and place them in a box for us to collect
- We will be putting some information Differentia.co.uk for people to read and comment on via a guestbook.
- We would like to put together a bank of sample interpretation panels/artworks/seating/shelters for people to see and comment on.
- We need a simple map showing the timetable of completion for the path itself.
- We need a more detailed map showing the locations of possible signage/access controls/interpretation/seating etc.
- We will be compiling a list of everyone who will be contributing to the interpretation
- We will be suggesting some ideas for events including the run/kayak/cycle event mentioned at the meeting
- We will look at the possibility of producing interpretation panels at key locations that can be produced and updated easily by local groups.
- We would like to create some poetry and words for use on the signage (Jeremy’s paddles) so if we can some drawings of the signage from Jeremy to show the school what we are intending that would be very helpful.
