Guidance and help for community plans

Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council (BDBC) supports communities to produce community plans in both rural parishes and in urban areas.

The Connected Communities Team can help and guide you.

It is important to use this support so that you can tap into best practice and local experience to produce a robust and credible plan. A community development officer can lead you through the process.

In a parish area the process is usually started by the parish council. In urban areas resident groups can work with their local councillors and the Connected Communities Team to develop a plan.

If you require any further information about community planning, please contact the Connected Communities Team by email community.development@basingstoke.gov.uk or on 01256 844844.
