9. Dorset Current GreenSpace framework works well. Problems – don’t talk to one another. Expansion in Dorset – county doesn’t manage maintained green space, town councils tend to manage in district council areas. Christchurch offers potential. Email, telecomms and events are all good publicity, esp events. Regional working groups and quarterly Open meetings work well. Regional level can share policy/strategy better.
