Three well supported local meetings have started the
process to develop the Community Led Action Plan for
Stewarton, addressing the various priorities and interests of
local residents, businesses, voluntary and sports groups. The
attendees to these meetings have formed a Steering Group,
to take the Project forward.
The aim of the Action Plan is to:
• Provide an opportunity for all the interested parties to
come together to think about, influence and then plan
the future for Stewarton.
• Generate more involvement in the Community from
local residents, organisations, businesses, voluntary and
community groups, and sports clubs.
• Provide a process for local democracy and active
citizenship within the Community.
• Enable Community involvement in the creation of a
Plan for Stewarton.
• Provide a long-term plan to support funding applications
for priority projects within the Town.
The first step is a comprehensive community survey to determine the key
issues and priorities for every resident, trader, club and association within
Stewarton.
This Community Views Survey is in the form of a questionnaire to
be delivered to all the households, traders, businesses and community
the completed surveys will provide
information to complete a report covering:
community facts and figures
community likes
community dislikes
a vision for the future
main strategies and priorities
an action plan
look out for the survey questionnaire,
and please take advantage of this
opportunity to have your say about
the future of stewarton
groups by a team of volunteers organised by the Steering Group. It is
important that everybody receiving a questionnaire participates in the
survey. It is hoped that the volunteers will be able to make a return visit,
about 10 days after delivery, to help with this process and collect the
completed form. Alternatively, there will be an opportunity to return the
questionnaire to several of the shops within the Town, or to complete the
survey online at:
