Future Oswestry Group and Plan

The Future Oswestry Plan, created by the group, is a conceptual vision for Oswestry, designed to drive aspirations and focus on long-term ambitions for the town. It draws upon extensive research, previous studies, and stakeholder engagement to outline key projects and priorities for enhancing the town for residents, businesses, and visitors.

The draft plan was developed through initial engagement with local stakeholders, businesses, and residents and was further refined through engagement activities and a survey conducted from 9 February to 24 March 2022.

The drop-in sessions and survey sought to gauge how people felt about the vision and the opportunities for each of the focus areas identified. The sessions also determined what priorities and ideas were most important to local people. The key results of these have been added within the Future Oswestry Plan and a summary of the consultation results produced.

The feedback from these activities has been instrumental in informing the Future Oswestry Group's investment decisions and resource prioritisation.
