There are three key elements to ensuring that we succeed in our aim of achieving this vision:
We want to demonstrate that the model we are pursuing is one that can be shared and replicated by other organisations in the UK and beyond. For example, private or local authority property and playing fields that can be successfully managed for a local community, not just schools but also local clubs and other organisations, to ensure that the property is fully utilised by the community, for the community.
STRATEGIC DIRECTION 2022-2027
Our strategic intent is to be recognised as a trusted partner for recreation in and near Bath over the next five years.
Having spent the last five years building foundations and new recreational sites, this new strategic period, which began in the autumn of 2022, will focus on the impact that Bath Recreation has on the community.
Our vision over the next five years is to create a model for the future utilisation of recreational properties. Bath Recreation wants to demonstrate and share a model which enables other organisations to benefit their communities.
Our enduring purpose is Nurturing Positive Lifestyles
