This part of the Plan is focused on land-based recreational/ sports facilities (nothing water/ river based). Recommended to include more statement of vision based around ongoing engagement with relevant local people and groups to achieve better recreational, leisure and economic use of the Rivers.

River portages, facilities and parking could be better to encourage more use.

Better flow of the river Gipping would reduce weed on the river, requiring co-ordination with Environment Agency.

Better access between the Orwell and Gipping.

Support local community projects.

Vision could be more imaginative (e.g. Norwich, Cambridge or Upper Thames?).
