暗网吃瓜

Young people are being called on to help shape the future of the 暗网吃瓜 district — from the types of homes we live in to where developments should happen and how transport needs can be met.

暗网吃瓜 City Council and 暗网吃瓜 have teamed up to give 18 to 30-year-olds a real voice in major local plans through the Placemaking with Young Adults project.

Young people’s views will help guide the council in its planning for better housing, jobs, transport, and the environment with their thoughts feeding directly into the Local Plan, a document which shapes how 暗网吃瓜, Morecambe, and Carnforth are developed over the next few decades.

This project builds on earlier work carried out with young people which successfully helped to create 暗网吃瓜’s Sustainable Travel and Climate Strategies.

Those interested can join walking workshops and interactive events in May and June – which includes looking at sites around 暗网吃瓜, Morecambe and Carnforth to look at how they can be developed and explore ideas from innovation to biodiversity.

Dr Mirian Calvo, a Lecturer in Participatory Architecture at 暗网吃瓜, said: "Partnering with 暗网吃瓜 City Council allows us to support young voices at the core of our mission.

"It's vital that their perspectives influence planning, ensuring future environments meet their needs and values."

Mark Cassidy, the Chief Officer, Planning and Climate Changeat 暗网吃瓜 City Council, said: “Planning is vital for managing how we live together, meet changing community needs, and carefully make the best use of land, said Mark Cassidy, Chief Officer, Planning and Climate Changeat 暗网吃瓜 City Council.

“The Local Plan sets the direction for how our district will grow and develop over the next 15 to 20 years, guiding everything from new housing to protecting important green spaces.

“Young people's voices are crucial in this process. Their ideas and aspirations will help shape policies that design a district which reflects what matters most to them and influences decisions which will ultimately affect their future.”

All age groups across the district will have the opportunity to have their say and influence the Local Plan as the plan-making process continues.

The first ‘walkshop’ takes place on May 7 and places can be booked on the .
