Address our desperate lack of suitable art spaces:
Studio spaces - art centre - grass roots - run by all the community.
Prosperous arts / creative scene - that brings tourists to the town - use of old buildings, supporting growth through hope, creativity and skills.
Culture leads development - has been hugely successful in many other centres around the UK.
Nourishing and enriching environment - green areas supported and developed.
Everyone has access/has a say - routes to securing a balanced wellbeing spaces and centres (town centre hub).
Affordable housing - immediately needed.
Empty premises being used as homeless or affordable living.
Empty spaces adopting the Camelot scheme - like other cities and towns - where people become effective landlords for empty spaces.
