The annual Assembly meeting of Spelthorne Together (formerly the Local Spelthorne Partnership (LSP)), took place on Monday 26 September 2011 from 9am–1.30pm at Kempton Park Racecourse, Sunbury.
This free conference was open to anyone who lives or works in Spelthorne.
The Assembly is an opportunity for representatives from the public, private, voluntary and community sectors to network, to share information and ideas and to take forward the work to improve life in Spelthorne. It is the only event in Spelthorne to bring together such a wide variety of people to have their say on key issues affecting life in the Borough.
The vision and plans for Spelthorne, as agreed by Spelthorne Together, are set out in the Community Plan (2005 – 2015). This outlines targets/priorities for 2010-2012 published around the five themes:
Safer Stronger
Children and Young People
Health and Wellbeing
Economic Development
Housing and Infrastructure and Environment
There was a chance to vote for £1,000 to be spent on a preferred project from a choice presented by each theme group. It was won by the Greeno Centre, Shepperton to support intergenerational work.
Around three dozen organisations brought display stands of interest to delegates.
