A first stage consultation in 2015 asked people to identify the issues that particularly concerned them and what they value about the area.

These next sessions will include the opportunity to review and discuss the findings of the previous consultations and hear about progress with the Neighbourhood Plan so far.

Participants will also be able to review and discuss the future ofkKey Local Sites and explore and share ideas for their particular Parish, Town and Village.

In the Hebden Bridge event specific emphasis will be placed on exploring future development options for the Valley Road Site.
