2002/2003 - ‘Newmarket Area Healthcheck’
-
 Sponsored
by the Countryside Agency, as part of the Market Towns Initiative,
the 'Healthcheck' was an intensive collection and analysis of
information to seek the views of everyone in the community
-
Questionnaires were sent out to (Private Individuals, Local
Clubs and Societies, Schools, Charitable Organizations, Businesses
and Local Government) of Newmarket and the surrounding villages
-
The
final phase of seeking the views of the community was a two day
Exhibition held in the Memorial Hall in Newmarket. The Exhibition
was used to let the community know what the Healthcheck was about
and to capture any other views
-
All
this information was analysed and published in a detailed report,
together with suggested Action Plans. To view the Newmarket Area
