What is a Village Appraisal?

A village appraisal is a unique survey of our community that looks at aspects of the local area and local life. It gathers facts and opinions from local residents and helps to formulate actions for future development of the village and its community. 

Through closely examining past and present village life, village appraisals can help us make informed plans for our village future. Village appraisals gather together all the relevant information that will help with this process, most commonly through the use of a questionnaire. These questionnaires which are completed anonymously, are usually distributed to every household and ask for residents opinions on any issues that are important to the community such as a new housing development or a lack of local recreation facilities.

 The village appraisal allows everyone the opportunity to voice their opinions on matters that they personally feel are important. It is carried out by the village, for the village and gives the community the chance to be dynamic and actively involved with their future. 

Please support the future of your village.
