Consultation process

Comprehensive engagement and consultation has taken place throughout the life of the project, beginning shortly after project inception in Autumn 2022. There have been three key phases so far, these being:
• First phase, from September 2022 focused on meeting with King Alfred’s sports clubs, leaseholders, and other regular users
• Second phase, from January 2023, which expanded engagement to reach out to community groups and groups representing the diversity of the city.
o Trust for Developing Communities commissioned to undertake engagement programme for young people and minoritised ethnic groups.
o Reference group established.
o Drop-in event & visioning workshop held in spring.
• Third phase launched January. Officers launched the on-line questionnaire from 8 January to 16 February, which was supported by updated website, information booklet, drop-in events, maildrops, social media campaign, and other promotional activities. Over 3,600 questionnaires completed and returned along with additional comments to the project mailbox.
