Committed to helping local businesses thrive and flourish, South Hams District Council is working to support the economy of local towns and rural areas across the district. 

Today, with the help from Salcombe Town Council and stakeholders in the community, South Hams District Council launched a public consultation across Salcombe and its neighbouring parishes so that its residents, businesses and second homeowners can help shape the future of the town.  

In its drive to make sure businesses and residents achieve their aspirations, South Hams District Council is working with the Salcombe and surrounding community to develop a Community Economic Plan. The plan will build on the town’s existing Neighbourhood Plan, create a clear economic vision and develop various projects to support growth. 

Take part in the residents survey if you are a resident or second homeowner in the Saclombe, Marlborough and East Portlemouth Parishes.

Take part in the business survey if you own or run a business in the area.
