With over 1,000 online survey responses received, details have been published today of further opportunities for people to have their say on the future of Live Borders services and facilities.
The upcoming community engagement and consultation activities being undertaken jointly by Live Borders and Scottish Borders Council will capture feedback and ideas from the public, service users and other key stakeholders.
They include public drop-in events, youth engagement activities and invite-only focus group sessions with key community stakeholders, such as community councils, town teams, user groups and community centre management committees.
Details of all public events can be found at www.scotborders.gov.uk/jointreview, where there is also a link to the ongoing online survey.
The survey gives everyone the opportunity to comment on more than 30 different facilities/services across the Borders. To date, 1,012 responses have been received, with the survey open until 31 August.
Councillor Euan Jardine, Leader of Scottish Borders Council, said: “I want to reiterate that no decisions have been taken on any service or facility. Our extensive consultation and engagement activities need to conclude before any proposals are developed, and that won’t be until later this summer.”
