Forty two Dewsbury residents, business owners and community leaders turned out on 12th April for the launch of The Dewsbury Partnership.
Following a buffet provided by The Real Junk Food Project, Dewsbury they watched a presentation on the need for local people, businesses and groups to cooperate together both;
- to identify what the people of Dewsbury want to see in terms of developments in the town and;
- to create a coordinated voice to push their message wherever it is required.
The presentation was followed by a Question and Answer session about some of the ideas being suggested after which the attendees voted unanimously to adopt the proposed constitution (click the image to the right to download).
Six residents then volunteered to act as committee members in order to bring the constitution into effect.
