Throughout the creation of the Neighbourhood Plan, Bilbrook Parish Council has run several consultations with residents, business owners, property owners, and other stakeholders within Bilbrook, as well as statutory consultees. The surveys were promoted via this website, social media, leaflet deliveries, online forms, and in-person events. The consultations began with a Residents’ Survey in 2022, to help guide the Plan using Residents’ priorities, proceeded to consultations on aspects of individual policies, and in May 2025, the draft Plan reached Regulation 14 status, where the same stakeholders were asked to review and feed back on the draft Policies created (Results pending). You can view the results of each consultation below:

In May 2025, the draft Plan reached the Regulation 14 stage, which meant consulting with all stakeholders on the plan and its policies. All households and businesses in Bilbrook received hard copy notices of the consultation. The Plan and consultation documentation were accessible online or in hard copies at specific locations and drop-in events. The Consultation was promoted on this website and Social Media. As well as local stakeholders, statutory stakeholders advised by South Staffordshire Council also received letters or emails asking for comment.
