NFA NEXT STEPS

Next Steps

After our well attended Community Meeting in the Hall on June 22nd 2023, we called a NEXT STEPS follow on meeting to decide on groups that will focus on certain aspects of our community life at this time of change.  That meeting happened on 6th July, and was attended by more than 30 people, where small focus groups were formed.

The focus for July was on the work of the small groups, where many people engaged so that we have been able to show a vibrant spectrum of ideas that we will be able to build on after the end of July.  Thoughts, explorations and outcomes were pulled together into an alternative Call for Ideas which was submitted to Moray Council on 31st July 2023.  You can read that Call for Ideas here 

 
Below is the list of groups we came up with:
  1. Call for Ideas writing group – you can see the Call for Ideas here
  2. Community Buy-Out 
  3. Climate Change adaptability
  4. Governance/Decision Making/Communication
  5. Communication 
  6. Nature based approach to development
  7. Agreement to Serve
  8. Economy and Commerce
  9. Ownership / Membership
  10. Transportation, Access and Parking  
  11. Meditation Times
  12. Library 
  13. Education
  14. Arts

Contact us to be put in touch with the groups.

Our next NFA Community Meeting is scheduled for 7th August in the Universal Hall, when we will focus on the idea of a Community Buy-out, alongside updates and ways of connecting together.
