Survey at the Hawkesbury Show

The Hawkesbury Show was held in May last year. At the Council tent there was an opportunity for the wider community to be involved in the Hawkesbury Horizon project. People from both within and outside the Region were asked to complete a survey about what they thought about the Hawkesbury. Almost 180 people completed the survey, their feedback was very interesting. People who completed the survey believed that:

• there should be more events and festivals in the area
• the Hawkesbury was a great place to live, visit and relax
• the Region isn't tired or declining
• there is great community spirit
• the area is scenic, there are good schools, lots of history and character
• the area is reasonably well regarded for shopping, sporting facilities, health services, culture and tourism
• there is a desire for more business opportunities and more support for small businesses
• there should be improved roads, public transport, bike and walking paths, more youth facilities, festivals and events and there could be more health and educational services
• overwhelmingly people wanted the Hawkesbury to be known as a great place to raise a family.
