Social Plan
The Forbes Shire Council Social plan was adopted in June 2004. This plan is an important document to the community of Forbes as it provides demographic analyses, identifies priority social issues and the actions necessary to address them. The plan addresses 8 key areas including children, young people, men, women, older people, people with disabilities, people from cultural and linguistically diverse backgrounds and Aboriginal people. The actions listed in the social plan serve to provide the social planning directions for the community over the next 18months. The Social Plan is currently under review and updates regarding this process and how the community can be involved will be available on this page as information becomes available. For more information please follow the link below or contact the Youth and Community Officer, Alison Aldridge, on 02 6851 1739.
