Downham Market by Design is a group of townspeople, independent of any
political grouping or local government organisation, who care about the town, its communities, and our shared future.
Our rural market town has a long history and has seen many changes. The last twenty years have been marked by new
housing development and rapid population growth. We want to ensure that incomers and long-established residents have a sustainable future in the town. At the same time, we want to protect
the town's rural character and local distinctiveness.
Our meetings take the form of discussions and workshops. We create opportunities for townspeople to join in debates that can influence local and regional policies affecting the town.
If you live, study or work in Downham Market, you are very welcome to join us!
