About the Vision Board

The long term ambitions of the Salisbury Vision will be difficult to achieve without the knowledge and expertise of key players within the public, private and community sectors. With this in mind, the Salisbury Vision Board was created to bring together local, professional people, with a strong desire for the Salisbury Vision to succeed and a clear understanding as to why Salisbury needs to retain and enhance its position as a key sub-regional retail and employment centre.

The majority of the Board have been involved since the Vision’s inception. This has created a strong sense of continuity and allowed an effective working partnership to develop as the Vision work has progressed.
