Peak Future - Have Your Say

By Jon

Park Authority wants your input as it shapes its strategy for the next 10 years.

The Peak District National Park Authority wants your input on the future of recreational facilities and services in Britain's most popular national park and you only have until Friday 25 September to do it.

The Authority is using an online survey to help garner public opinion as part of a public consultation into  the draft Peak District Recreation Strategy - called Active in the Outdoors - which will assist with the planning of services over the next 10 years.

Active In The Outdoors has three main aims, to look at existing facilities and services and how well they work. To identify areas that could be improved and to consider what the Park should prioritise between now and 2020.

They want to hear from members of the public including recreational groups and obviously including walkers and climbers. So to have your say, head over to the online questionnaire at www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/recreation or if you're a terminal Luddite with a malfunctioning internet connection, call 01629 816270 for a paper copy.
