Kirkby Malham parish hall hosted the formation of a strong
action group of 60 Malhamdale residents who are determined to improve their future living and working conditions
Project groups were formed to ensure that these ideas were acted upon to maximise support and funding opportunities that may be available from government and European sources. Forming partnerships with Craven Districts Community Investment Prospectus, Yorkshire Dales National Park, Yorkshire Forward and other bodies were seen to be priorities.
Collaboration between the project groups and Kirkby Malhamdale Parish Council is going from strength to strength. With the Parish Council giving the lead to others in its application for Vital Village funding. The Dale is deemed to include the whole valley from the uplands of Malham Moor down to the A65.
