- On the 5th August, 2015 the Neighbourhood Development Plan for Welford-on-Avon was formally submitted to Stratford-on-Avon
District Council. To ensure the best possible quality of submission the required documents were sent for a health check from the
Neighbourhood Planning Independent Examination Referral Service (NPIERS).
The results of the Health Check can be found here. The final submission documents can be found in the Planning Section of the
Parish Council website.
- The Pre-Submission Consultation version of the Neighbourhood Plan is still available for download.
- Draft 11 of the Neighbourhood Plan has been used by Stratford-on-Avon District Council and Welford-on-Avon Parish Council in the Appeal Public Enquiry to defend our village from the proposed 95 home development by Gladman. The appeal result is currently pending.
- Draft 10 of the Neighbourhood Plan has been reviewed by our Parish Council, Stratford-on-Avon District Council and our Planning Consultant during July 2014. We are now updating the main document with a view to producing the next draft for parish consultation in the near future.
- Another thank you to parishioners for the very construcutive feedback received in the April 2014 consultation where draft policies were also given their first validation check.

A very big thank you to the large number of parishioners who attended our update and consultation meetings in the Memorial Hall on Dec 1st.
Your feedback will be extremely useful and with such a good attendance it really shows the support of Welford residents for protecting and evolving
our parish appropriately. All the documents from the event are published in the Plan Area where we also put new iterations
and the policy documents as they become available.

opportunities to and for our village.
The Welford Neighbourhood Plan is the strategic solution which is still at least a year away from being legally enforceable.
