Maldon District Culture and Heritage Strategy Community Survey
A Culture and Heritage Strategy for the Maldon District will enable Maldon District Council and its many partners to make the most effective investments to improve the culture and heritage offer and promote sustainability and growth across these importance sectors. It is important that local communities have their say. So please share your insights, priorities, opportunities and challenges as you see them. This will help us to put together a strategy that is representative of the many communities and locations across the District.
The Cultural and Heritage sectors (at all scales) are important to the District's sense of place, identities, and for the visitor economy. They provide jobs, skills development, volunteering opportunities, and fun (and taking part is good for health). It is important that the Maldon District has a vibrant cultural and heritage offer for local communities and for visitors.
The Culture and Heritage Strategy is being developed by Cultural Engine CIC with Maldon District Council, with input from many other organisations and groups. If you would like to get in contact please email giles@culturalengine.org.uk

Giles Tolfield, who is working as part of this project, will be coming along to our monthly meeting on Friday 9th January and will give a short explanation of the project to develop this culture and heritage strategy.
Joining Burnham-on-Crouch u3a is a great way to find and develop new interests and make friends in a relaxed environment. We are a volunteer-led charitable organisation, offering learning and social opportunities to people who are no longer working full-time and who enjoy getting together to share their skills and learn for fun.
Our members believe in life-long learning and we achieve this by forming self-help Interest Groups covering a wide range of topics and activities, together with regular meetings open to all members and usually featuring an invited speaker. We aim for an environment where everyone feels included and has the chance to make new friends and enjoy themselves.
Burnham u3a was formed in 1999, so we have recently celebrated our 25th anniversary. We currently have around 300 members and a wide range of interest groups.
