 Welcome
to the official site for The Burnham-on-Sea and Highbridge Regeneration
Partnership, a company limited by guarantee and was formed to
attract and include local participation in the regeneration of
the area.
At the last Annual General Meeting in December 2007 the Regeneration
Partnership elected Councillor Rosemarie Parsons to the position
of Chair. Rosemarie, who lives in Highbridge, is a long-term member
of the Partnership and is adamant that the needs of the communities
within both towns must be the prime focus for any regeneration
plans.
If you are interested in the local community, you are welcome
to attend one of our meetings as an observer. Please telephone
us on 01278 785002 for further information.

Development Initiative is focused on building active and sustainable
communities based on social justice and mutual respect. Community

affecting changes which inevitably are happening in this area.
You are invited to help make Burnham-on-Sea and Highbridge a more
vibrant place to live, where everyone has access to good facilities,
pride in their community and the opportunity to learn new skills
and contribute towards the development of the kind of environment
they want to live in.
