Your New Year Resolutions for Hedon
Wishing Time!
DURING THE NEW YEAR CELEBRATIONS in London, Boris Johnson the Mayor urged us all to look forward to 2010 with optimism and energy. Whilst not being too rosy-eyed about this – because some people are clearly in a better position than others to be optimistic and energetic – we can all still hope for and wish for a better future.
This is traditionally the time to make New Year resolutions and commit ourselves to new endeavours to make our lives and the lives of others better. So in that resolutionary spirit than please do not forget to make your wish for a better Hedon!
If you live, work or know Hedon then you can contribute to the Hedon Wish List. What would make the town a cleaner, safer, greener and better place?
Click the Wish List logo below NOW – it will remain active until Sunday 31st January 2010.

Call for an annual Hedon New Years celebration on Market Hill
THE HEDON WISH LIST has already generated some interesting ideas. 
But one suggestion submitted deserves an early mention:
An annual New Years celebration on Market Hill for the families of Hedon. The beacon could be lit.”
A simple idea but one which could become a real event and focus point for Hedon residents. In many towns and cities there are natural meeting points where local people and Hogmanay visitors gather to wish each other well and enjoy the count-down to the New Year. So why not in Hedon?
What do you think? Would you attend?

The Hedon Wish List
Hedon Wish List 2010 with The Hedon Blog
“Imagine the kind of place we want Hedon to be!”
THE HEDON BLOG wants to grow an online conversation about the town. That conversation can cover everything that matters to local people and can be shared with the rest of the world via the internet.
This campaign will aim to generate a Town ‘Wish List’. This will list all ideas that people have for making Hedon a better place to live and work in.
The Wish List will reflect individual ambitions and constructive proposals for the town. Let’s imagine the kind of place we want Hedon to be!
The Wish List should not be a list of negatives: If you know of a problem, then what is a possible answer? You can be as imaginative as you like.
Examples:
A town that doesn’t have dangerous traffic going through its centre!
- Traffic calming measures
- Community speed watch
- More safer crossing areas
More things for young people to do!
- Extend the Youth Club opening times
- Speak to young people about what they want and would use
Once we have developed the wish list, we will prioritise it into realistic actions that can be tackled now, sooner or later. We will look at the actions that need to take place in order to make the priorities happen! And who can help us achieve some of these: Councils, MPs, NHS, business, voluntary organisations, etc?
The Wish List will open for ideas on Tuesday 1st December 2009 and will close on Sunday 31st January 2010.
You can take part in generating the Hedon Wish List 2010 by visiting The Hedon Blog between those dates.
