Representation Summary:

Centralising the position of the school, commercial shop and medical centre. An opportunity to get the layout for the village right from the outset. A clear decision on this is 'a must' with then housing taking a lead thereafter.

The proposed school should be positioned in the central part of Chidham and Hambrook parish I consider that to be on land opposite the present St Wilfred's Hospice shop. It is essential that the school has adequate sports/ playing fields so that children can have the requisite space for physical activity and outside space for learning.The commercial shop for Chidham should equally be sited centrally, with the advent of home deliveries it in my opinion means this type of shop is a nice to have, more and more folk are simply ordering online with home deliveries. It is essential that with the proposed increase in housing that a medical centre forms part of the infrastructure improvements for the village.
