BOSCOMBE residents and community groups are being urged to take part in a survey studying local services.

Charitable Trust Bourne-mouth 2026 has commissioned an independent researcher to find out what children’s activities, services for older people, sports and arts clubs and other groups are currently available in Boscombe, and what other services are needed.

Debbie Clifton, company secretary at the Trust, said: “Regenerating Boscombe is one of our key priorities.

“We know there’s a lot of good work already happening and we’re keen to work with partners and residents to maximise community facilities for residents and creative industries.

“We know from previous work in Boscombe that some locals are concerned about a lack of facilities.”

To take part email clare.hirst@bournemouth2026.co.uk.

The results will be published at www.bournemouth2026.org.uk by April next year.
