Opportunity Bucks

Winter

Partnership working is delivering positive change across High Wycombe through the Opportunity Bucks programme and Ward Partnerships. Working with residents, community groups and local organisations, projects are improving facilities, celebrating local heritage and responding to priorities identified by residents.

Investment is also supporting community infrastructure, with refurbishment works underway at Vibe Church to create a more accessible, flexible space for activities, groups and events.

Local priorities are also being translated into practical improvements. Works at Green Hill Junction have been agreed, and double yellow lines at Hughenden Avenue Four Corners junction have been approved to improve visibility and road safety.

The Fractured Land Collective project is bringing artists, residents and community groups together through creative activities that encourage participation and celebrate High Wycombe’s diversity.

The Community Health and Wellbeing Workers programme is also working in Castlefield and Oakridge, supporting residents through regular household visits and outreach to help address health inequalities in local communities.

Community Activity Days continue to bring together council services, health partners, community organisations and volunteers to deliver environmental improvements, share health and wellbeing advice, promote local services and gather resident feedback.

The next event will take place on Tuesday, 27th October in the High Street.

Together, these initiatives demonstrate how Opportunity Bucks and Ward Partnerships are delivering tangible benefits across High Wycombe communities.
