Braintree Council is asking for your views on how you use and value your local open space, sport and recreational facilities.

Responses to the survey will enable the council to asses any gaps in provision and ensure that existing facilities are planned and managed effectively to meet the needs of local people.

The work done will feed into the policies and allocations which are contained within the new Local Plan.

Survey forms are available by visiting braintree.gov.uk/openspaces2 Completed forms must be returned by April 20.
