Gloucester Local Community Plan has now been finalised, marking an important achievement for the Gloucester community.

During 2019-21 the Gloucester community worked together to develop a local community plan.

The plan outlines a 10 year vision for the community and identify actions, partners and priorities to achieve this vision.

It aims to bring together the vision the community of Gloucester and surrounds has for its area and will be used to encourage support and funding from all levels of government as well as to foster a sense of common purpose within the community.

This plan was developed by the local community, with support from MidCoast Council through a series of facilitated and information activities.

Through surveys, workshops and feedback sessions the community got together to identify what is important for the future and to plan how they will go about achieving their goals and aspirations.

It recognises the importance of Gloucester as a hub for its outlying areas, with smaller communities relying on Gloucester for services, amenities, community, sporting and cultural opportunities.

Through this process key themes of environment, economy, community and infrastructure were identified around which aspirations and objectives could be aligned.
