Town and Parish Plans

Purbeck District Council has been working in partnership with Dorset Community Action since 2002 to promote Parish Plans across the District. Parishes are now at different stages in the development of their plans, but the focus has always been to produce a document involving maximum community input and one that reflects the views and concerns of importance to individual communities.

The documents below provide further information on preparing Parish Plans, the assessments process and progress to date across the District.
