Present:-

Jim PercivalSylvia Percival John Brady Faye Green Victoria Bowden Roger Tordoff Anne Pearce John Harrison Sylvia Harrison Jo Brady

Guest:- Derek Liddell YRCC

1Brief introduction from JB discussing delivery of questionnaires and general tally of how many more needed. (JB to ask printer for 100 more copies to be delivered asap).

2JB introduced Derek Liddell from YRCC and asked him to give a self resume.

3DL spoke about himself and how he could help us with the next steps in analysing the questionnaire results. It appears there are a few options:¬

1An outside body / agency

2A software package such as compass. 3Bureau

4There then followed general discussion of questionnaire analysis, what we are trying to actually achieve from the results and how to go about it. DL talked about the pros and cons of the options and linkage of questions.

5FG suggested XL tally and correlation. FG was to contact various bodies

who might be interested in the questions and results and how this could help them. This list includes:- Police, Community Safety Officer, Sheffield Futures, Parks and Leisure, Age Concern, Street Force. These groups might like to discuss matters face to face and then they could be invited to a meeting or they could pass comments on.

6DL mentioned that a quote for printing is probably sufficient to buy a couple more weeks into April for the budget deadline.

7FG is bringing some other village plans for discussion to the next meeting to get people's views and decide on the format of the village plan.

8DL's suggestion was that the full questionnaire analysis should be available on-line to

everybody through the website and just a few hard copies in strategic places for people to view then a brief summary to go to each individual. This saves a lot of money from printing costs and is also quite concise to read.

9Underspend for specific projects was mentioned. VB and FG were especially interested in grant money for the park pavilion.

10 Everyone at the meeting volunteered to do a snapshot analysis of returned questionnaires to get a general feel of results and see any trends that appear.

11 JB requested more money for which he has to speak to Phil Allis the Clerk of the Parish Council.

12 SH to obtain a quote for scanning for analysis from Bureau (JP to provide her with relevant information).

13 At the next meeting - 31" January - 7.OOpm at the Parish Council Offices questionnaires will be looked at and a village plan format will be agreed.
