Current Performance:
There is a diverse range of opinions amongst stakeholders concerning the current life stage of the Avon Valley region. While some feel the area is stagnant and even in
decline, others feel that it is still developing. However, for the majority of stakeholders, there is a sense that the area is still very much in the involvement stage and is yet
to fully reach its potential as a destination.
