Tenbury Area Partnership (TAP) - Open Day Event

Tenbury Area Partnership (TAP) will be hosting an Open day on Tuesday 17th January at The Pump Rooms between 2pm and 7pm open to everyone living in both Burford & Tenbury areas to comment on the findings of the recent ‘Mad, Sad & Glad’ survey results.
TAP is working closely with County, District and local councils to ensure local needs are included in policy and strategic decision making, so this is YOUR OPPORTUNTY to HAVE YOUR SAY on what key priorities will be addressed over the coming years. 
The initial findings plus a description of what TAP is all about was included in a Community Newsletter that was distributed to 3500 households within Burford & Tenbury during the last week in December.
TAP representatives will be on hand to answer questions on the findings that are themed around:-
• The Built & Natural Environment
• Business, Economic & Tourism
• Public Services & Community
There will also be opportunities to record other areas that might have been missed.
All details and comments will be analysed and included in the revised Community Plan, which will be launched at the end of April.
FREE light refreshments will be available throughout the afternoon and everyone will be given a Loyalty Scheme card with one red apple included as a thank you for participating in the event.
TAP will be making use of the bus shuttle service, which is available during the Teme Bridge closure, and TAP has made arrangements for the bus to stop by The Crow so that access to The Pump Rooms is as easy as possible.

Do you get a sticker if you use the library?

yes you do, and you get a gold star for being a good boy or girl.

Is this meeting open to people who work or shop in Tenbury or is it restricted to people who live in Tenbury and Burford?

This is really annoying! The refreshments are NOT, NOT, NOT free! . . . someone is picking up the tab. Presumably the long-suffering tax-payer.

How come they can hand out stickers if you aren't buying anything.

Time is money, so if you are donating your time, then its the same as buying

So if I spend some time looking round a shop, but decide not to buy, I still get a sticker?

The best thing they could do would be to bring Burford into Worcestershire with Tenbury, so that we don't have an administrative borderline running right through the middle of our community.

This would improve efficiency with rubbish collections, hospital visits, and probably a lot more.

Why not Tenbury into Shropshire?

See where I'm going with this?

I don't think either Worcestershire or Shropshire will agree to lose a patch.
