One of the aims of the day was to consult with residents on what they like about their community, what they dislike about their community and what change they believe would improve the quality of life for residents of Harlescott.

| Findings: |
The Grange Fun Day provided the Harlescott Action Forum with the ideal opportunity to consult with some of the 'hard to reach' groups that exist within the ward. This opportunity was seized upon, and the results of the consultation have helped to focus, what was an obscured image of Harlescott Grange and its community needs.
