Locality Action Plans

About the project

On behalf of High Peak Borough Council, Mutual Ventures have been commissioned to develop Locality Action Plans across the area.

To help develop these new plans, we are inviting local businesses to take part in engagement sessions and contribute their views.

The Locality Action Plans will help shape priorities for the future of our localities, covering social, economic and environmental issues, and will inform how investment, services and partnerships are developed at a local level. Businesses play a vital role in the success and character of our towns and communities, so hearing directly from business owners is a key part of this process.

We will be holding dedicated engagement sessions for local businesses to:

• share views on what is working well locally and what could be improved;
• identify the challenges and opportunities facing businesses and the local economy; and
• help shape priorities for future action and investment in each locality.

Each session will be focused on one of the four locality areas and Businesses are invited to attend whichever meeting relates closest to their business/premises.
