Get involved 

Barnsley 2030 is essentially a conversation, to listen to people’s stories about the town and help create a thriving future for everyone. 

Responses will help to build a picture of what people think is unique about the borough; the challenges people are facing and their future ambitions. This will provide an understanding of what the borough’s priorities should be for the next ten years.

Barnsley CVS are looking for volunteers to listen and record what is important to the people and also groups to take part.

The feedback is vital to tell the story of Barnsley and help health and care partners, and other local businesses and organisations, to understand what our local priorities should be.
