Medway Local Plan (Regulation 18, 2023)
Representation ID: 343
Received: 21/09/2023
Respondent: Mr Declan Kennedy
Representation Summary:
Medway needs modern, supportive housing for disabled and vulnerable individuals, located in public areas with a public realm. Addressing mental health issues, drug addiction, and gambling addictions is crucial. The gambling shops in Medway's High Streets contribute to the gambling addiction. We need better helplines, better services and better support, especially for mental health. The Sunlight Centre should be relocated to Medway Park, near the Gym, as it promotes wellbeing, health and fitness. The three will compliment each other. Social isolation is also a major problem, including myself. We need more activities to do in Medway for all ages.
