🔍 What is a Neighbourhood Plan?
A Neighbourhood Plan is a community-led framework that allows local residents to influence future development, design, and policies within their area. It helps shape how the community grows and evolves in a way that reflects the values and needs of those who live and work there. 

🗳️ What is a Referendum?
A referendum is a direct vote in which the entire electorate is asked to either accept or reject a specific proposal—in this case, the Wantage Neighbourhood Plan. It’s a key opportunity for residents to have a say in the future of Wantage.
