In 2004 all the residents of Countesthorpe received a 21 page Questionnaire asking for their opinions on a wide-ranging set of local concerns, issues and facilities. Residents were also asked to add written comments if the questions asked needed further explanation.
Over 700 replies and 100 pages of comments were received at the Parish Council office allowing the Parish Councillors to understand what parishioners thought about Countesthorpe and its facilities.
A report was then written which brought together the Questionnaire’s findings and has subsequently become known as ‘The Parish Plan’. The Parish Council have taken ownership of an Action Plan to improve ‘wherever it can’ those areas which generated most concern and feeling.
At the same time the Parish Council would like to thank and applaud the many people who already work hard to improve their village and its life.
The Report generated by the Questionnaire can be seen below, in the village Library and the Parish Council office. Residents can also see what progress is being made from the Action Plan updates here on our website.
