Well, after dozens of meetings in each community in the Shire with teams of community members pouring over pages of ideas, the Community Action Plans for Coonabarabran, Baradine, Binnaway, Mendooran and Dunedoo have been published.

 

This brings them into line with Coolah whose Plan had been produced in conjunction with an earlier visit from Community Development Guru, Peter Kenyon.

The Plans provide firstly a framework  -  Our story  -  Our goals  -  Our guiding values  -  Our challenges.  Then a comprehensive audit of Our assets.

There follows Four to Six Strategies and Actions based upon Major Themes

that were considered important by the over 400 people

who participated in the 18 different events across the Shire.

                        To access the Community Action Plans, click on the images below.

To revisit some of the Powerpoint presentations from Peter Kenyon's workshops, See below *.

Copies of the Plans will be distributed to as many different groups in the community as possible. If you or your group would like assistance with anything moving forward: please reach out.  If we can’t help you, we will find someone who can. We look forward to continuing to work together with the wonderful Warrumbungle Communities.

 

Remember Peter’s top tip, “Whatever the issue, community is the answer” and his wise words “Great communities don’t just happen! – They are created, nurtured and sustained by caring, connected and involved residents.”

If you would like to be more involved in your community, let us know and we will help you join in.
