Our Action Plans
The Town Centre Forum’s action plan seeks to move towards the declared vision for the town centre, grounded in support for the delivery of our LSP’s Community Strategy, and the regeneration of North East Lincolnshire. Our actions will reflect the special role and priorities agreed by the Forum membership and will be underpinned at all times by our own core values.

Our strategy to deliver the vision can be best outlined through 5 key delivery Themes, extracted from the vision statement.

Theme1: Protecting and enhancing the environment.
Theme2: Enhancing the image.
Theme3: Maintaining and improving community safety.
Theme4: Building the town centre partnership and improving communications.
Theme5: Rejuvenating the Town Centre’s economic potential.

Each theme has an overarching indicative measure that enables clear communication of progress and priority requirements, to the Forum and to the wider public.

Theme 2 Enhancing Image and raising aspirations-

Theme 3 Maintaining and improving community safety-

There are a number of objectives set out for each key theme. These objectives have been derived from what are seen as each themes’ ‘Critical Success Factors’. Success of these objectives feeds directly to the five key themes that in turn link directly with the success of the Town Centre Forum vision. ‘Strategy in Action’. The following pages outlines the critical success factors for each theme and the objectives set to achieve them.
