The vision reflects the views of the community – residents, businesses and other stakeholders –expressed through public meetings and questionnaires and was first endorsed by the Forum in 2016, reviewed and updated in 2023.
Little Woodhouse will be a strong and resilient mixed and balanced community of long-term residents, families, students and young professionals, with good connections to the nearby city centre, the universities, the LGI hospital and major transport links. There will be strong community links across different groups and organisations involved in the area.
The Little Woodhouse area will retain and respect its rich heritage of buildings, streets and green spaces and will provide an attractive environment to residents and visitors. There will be clean and tidy streets with improvements in the environment, including litter collection, parking arrangements and safe bus, cycling and pedestrian routes.
The area will offer sustainable places to live to different sized households and different age groups with opportunities to work, study, shop, and to enjoy leisure and healthy exercise close by. There will be good access to health and education services for all age groups. It will be a tranquil area with a low crime rate for an inner-city area.
To achieve this Vision we identified 8 objectives described here as Policy Ideas
