Parish plan

In England, parish plans are a form of community-led plan.[1]

Parish plans determine the future of communities and how they can change for the better. They are documents that set out a vision for the future of a parish and outlines how that can be achieved in an action plan.

The parish plan process may include:[2]

  • a village appraisal – a household questionnaire to assess needs and aspirations of local people
  • participatory appraisals – hands-on interactive workshops
  • business surveys
  • the creation of an action plan

Members of the rural community action network support groups in local communities to create parish plans.[1]

Another type of community-led plan is a village design statement.
