PEOPLE - Participation
There are so many unanswered and searching questions about people's participation.
Among those questions is - how can we participate more? It's just magical when people rise up to play an active role in aspects of our world - like doing something amazing to help others, by starting a project. People participation is so much better than leaving it to corporates and gov't to bend the world to their will!
We hope our curated selection of articles - presented here - will prove enlightening and thought-provoking.

WILL NEW SMP INSPIRE US ALL?
Could our new SMP be a breath of fresh air to our communities? Roz Savage is rather new to politics - which might mean she thinks differently to the career politicians. Let's give her a chance to show us.

A TOWN SURVEY - HOW COOL!
This is exactly what every town council should be leading. But would it be better to add to an annual survey - something far more valuable. What if each council staged a residents' debate - monthly?

A TIME FOR PEACE
Organised by - Community Solidarity Stroud District - members of the community came together to mark Holocaust Memorial Day. At a time of great unrest in the Holy Land this was significant and welcomed.

RESIDENTS TO GIVE INPUT
Residents are being invited to give their input into a new community plan to shape the future of their town. GR8 - this should be the norm - with residents having input to all things affecting their town!
