‘We love Prestwood’: Share your Ideas and Visions
We invite all Prestwood residents and stakeholders to complete Prestwood Community Association’s ‘We love Prestwood’ consultation.
YOUR voice can guide future plans for Prestwood, and help build a stronger, more vibrant community together.
YOUR feedback will directly influence upcoming projects, fundraising, and volunteering opportunities. Click below to participate and help make a meaningful impact.
For our younger residents: ‘I Love Prestwood’ poster competition
Please help make this consultation the most inclusive ever of Prestwood residents.
Our younger residents are being invited to present their ideas in a fun way, by submitting a piece of art work, showing what they love about Prestwood. And if they can complete the survey, in physical form or online (perhaps with some help?), then that would be amazing!
You can download a blank poster by clicking the ‘Download Poster’ button. Or you can pick one up from our volunteers at one of our ‘Meet and Greets’. We are hoping also to involve local schools.
Completed artwork (and surveys) can be dropped off in a box in the Wye Residential office, on the corner of the High Street.
Prizes will be awarded for the best submission in each year group, from 1 to 5. The best overall will be displayed across the village.
Why a survey?
The consultation seeks to find out what matters most to Prestwood residents and our community.
By sharing visions and ideas, we strive to achieve:
- a strong, caring, happy and resilient village
- a common purpose to inspire community participation and volunteering
- an evidence base to support funding applications.
Who can participate in the Prestwood Community Survey?
Everyone with an interest in Prestwood!
All residents, businesses and stakeholders of Prestwood are invited to contribute their thoughts and ideas.
We are especially keen to encourage participation by as broad a spread of residents as possible, and of all ages.
How long will the survey take to complete?
Typically, the survey will take about 5-10 minutes to complete.
When does the survey close?
The consultation will be open from March 8th to April 26th.
Is it only online?
No, those who prefer to complete the consultation in hard copy, or are not on line, can do so.
Hard copies can be requested from info@prestwoodcommunity.uk and will be available at PCA’s face to face sessions.
Where can I drop off a completed hard copy survey, and/or art work?
We have placed ‘ballot boxes’ at:
- The Green Man

- Great Missenden Community Library
- or hand them to us when you see us out and about
If you don’t want want to fold art works, they can be laid flat in a box in Wye Residential Estate Agents.
Moat Lane School is kindly helping by collecting completed art works.
Is my survey response confidential?
Yes, your survey response is confidential. Only if you opt to join our mailing list (and we encourage you to do so!) will we collect and retain your contact details.
Will we have a chance to discuss the findings?
Yes, once responses have been collated, meetings will be arranged to present them to the community. Responses will also be published on this web site.
