A GROUP of Wootton Wawen residents has completed an appraisal and devised a plan to bring the village into a technological age, writes Helen Clarke.

And a variety of ideas have been concocted to improve village life.

The steering group began the process in May 2000 and received support from the parish council.

The appraisal was formally adopted by the council last month.

The group also came up with suggestions on improving public transport, speeding, issues relating to the police and the economy of the village.
