News on Crediton Heart Proposals

The Crediton Heart Project's wide-ranging consultation process began at the Boniface Centre, where more

than 40 people, representing 28 community groups, gathered to listen to proposals and share their views.

"We have so many brilliant groups and organisations working hard to make things happen in our area. but many of them lack the space or resources to fulfill their potential" said Rosemary Stephenson, Chair of the Crediton Heart Project Team.

"We want to explore ways of supporting them as the town's population grows."

In a lively and energetic meeting, attendees shared many ideas for how to improve community life. There was wide enthusiasm for a website covering town and village events, venue hire, ticketing, sharing of resources and wider community information.

There was also much interest in a new community venue that could include a cinema, performance auditorium, more facilities for young people and space for new businesses to grow.

This consultation was a vital step towards the aim of Keeping the Heart in Crediton.
