It seems like the “Big Society” agenda the government is putting forward is in fact community activism and self determination. No matter what your political persuasion, whether Conservaliberal leanings, staunch Labour or Monster Raving Loony lover, good old fashioned mucking in and participating in local life is something every vibrant community requires. How fabulous that the Worth Valley has people pulling together to create something unique and comparatively cohesive.
I can think of several projects off the top of my head that indicate things are going in the right direction, despite the difficult challenges being faced daily.
The Wall of Art project for example that was recently held in Haworth (and is featured on our cover) was spawned by a small group of activists and engaged more people in the community than ever.
Fair Intents, the fledgling eco-fair that will take place Sept 11th & 12th, is also the result of individuals interested in contributing to community life in a particular way, as is the Arts and Music Festival that runs at the same time (see p.10). Another example is the Straw Race that has been going for “donkey’s years” and benefits local charities. The list is much longer than space permits but what is clear is that people in the Worth Valley do value the community and regardless of big government cheerleading, individuals get together and make things happen on the ground... in their very own little “Big Society” way.
That said, I hope you will enjoy participating in al fresco local village life in the remaining weeks of the summer! As ever, support your local shops; every little bit helps.
