Our online community consultation has now closed. Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to provide us with your thoughts, comments, and proposals for the future of Nairn. We received 87 online responses, with postal replies to be counted.

This marks the close of our data gathering community consultation. You may recall this process started away back in June 2023 with our initial community survey as the Local Place Plan kicked off, and has culminated in our community consultation in April 2024.

We are now in digest mode, analysing all of the responses, comments, and proposals, to build what will be a major milestone for the community and communities of Nairn and Nairnshire, helping us all to shape the future of our home.

A quick summary of your engagement so far, with at least:

• 454 replies to our community survey
• 64 directly submitted comments to our website
• 181 local people attending our community consultation roadshow
• 690 individual comments left at our community roadshow
• 2 detailed proposal emails received representing both an individual and a major community group
• 21 open Thursdays hosted at the Nairn Community & Arts Centre

This is a massive range of leadership from the community and will allow the creation of a truly community led Local Place Plan that will help to guide and steer future development throughout Nairn and Nairnshire for the 10 year life of the plan, setting the building blocks for the future of Nairn and Nairnshire.
