News on Wick Map (Streets for All)

Hello Wickers,

We hope you are all keeping well and staying safe in these strange circumstances we find ourselves in.

In order to protect the health and wellbeing of the community and our staff, we have made the decision to cancel our upcoming events for the Wick Street Design Project. However, we are still working from home on our design proposals for the High Street and planning ways of keeping you all involved, informed and engaged with the project remotely.

We will be sure to keep you updated on our progress so please keep checking project news in the coming weeks: wick.commonplace.is/news

In the meantime, let’s take a look at how far we’ve come since the project launched in October last year:

- We now have 61 of you subscribed to our project news and over 1000 visitors to our project websites!

- Our Winter and Spring newsletters have kept you informed about project activities and progress.

- Wick Hanging Baskets group and a few other local folk planted up some planters and painted a bench that even featured in Christmas panto.

- In total we have received over 800 comments through paper and online surveys and at events.

Stay tuned for more news about how you can keep involved in the project.
