Subgroups: Driving Change in the Forest of Dean

The heart of the Forest Economic Partnership's (FEP) impactful work lies in its sub-groups. These dedicated teams, comprised of stakeholders and passionate individuals, delve deep into specific challenges within their remit, exploring innovative solutions to propel the Forest of Dean forward.

Focused Collaboration

While our Stakeholder meetings are open to all, Sub-Group meetings are closed to foster an environment for open, in-depth discussions and idea generation among members. Members are committed to attending at least one of the monthly meetings per quarter, ensuring progress is maintained and avoiding repetitive conversations.

Targeted Action

Each sub-group has a distinct mission and the autonomy to create Action Groups, enabling them to address specific projects efficiently and effectively. Currently, our active sub-groups are Education and Skills and Climate Action and Net Zero.

Past Successes

Our Transport, Bridges and Borders, and Digital Connectivity sub-groups have successfully completed their initial objectives and are currently inactive. Their contributions have laid the groundwork for continued progress in these vital areas.
