Cogges Farm: URGENT! Closure danger - action group formed & online survey link
Cogges Farm is in danger of closing. There is a very tight deadline - 29th May - for responses to the County Council. Cogges Farm is a "staple" resource for people with children over the entire West Oxfordshire and Oxford area, and an important educational resource for all of us in Oxfordshire. In this news item from the Wychwood Network the Director briefly outlines what moves are afoot:
The Future of Cogges Manor Farm – Survey Request: Urgent
You may have heard that the options for the future development of Cogges Manor Farm Museum, in Witney are being reviewed.
One of these options is that responsibility for the site be taken on by a newly formed community-based organisation, with the aim of retaining Cogges Museum as a facility that will benefit the people of Witney and West Oxfordshire. A group has been formed to develop proposals and a business plan. The Wychwood Project has been supporting the development of these ideas with advice and information on local conservation opportunities.
To assist in developing their ideas the group has created an on-line opinion survey. Their aim is to collect 500 responses. However, there is very little time left before a formal proposal has to be made to Oxfordshire County Council on the 29th May. If you are able to complete the survey please do so.
