Questionnaire Responses

During December 2022, PCLT asked you through a Questionnaire posted online through our Facebook Group, Page and Pewsey Notice Board, for your initial thoughts and ambitions for the redevelopment of the former Police Station site in the middle of Pewsey. 

The results of that survey are in and are illustrated below:-

Community Engagement Events

During last November the Directors spent time researching and recruiting a firm of Architects to design the redevelopment at King Alfred’s Court to transform it from being a former Police Station and House into Pewsey’s first community owned affordable housing.

Community Energy Network Opportunity for Pewsey - we created a Facebook post to encourage Pewsey residents to give support and feedback on this idea.

Please complete the questionnaire on our Facebook page.
 

For the first twelve months a Steering Group worked to establish the correct base to meet our goals, then the Trust was incorporated as a Community Benefit Society and became ready for the Membership to elect Directors at our first AGM held in February 2020.  Further volunteer participants from the Membership were then able to form an Advisory Group to develop the policies and activities of the PCLT.

The Rural Housing Needs Survey was commissioned during December 2019 in conjunction with WCC, each Pewsey Household received a survey asking the householders a number of questions and asking for comments regarding housing needs within the Community.   The results were published in April 2020 and identified the need for 26 dwellings at a low cost rental within the Parish of varying accommodation.

We have held three meetings in November 2018, January 2019 and May 2019 to determine the level of interest in a local CLT and to report back our findings, to those that have joined the PCLT.
