The Assets and Access is a Subgroup of Largo Communities Together, and as the name suggests we have a dual remit.

Our Assets activities provide a focal point of expertise and resources within LCT for all things around understanding the ownership, and potential acquisition, of land and buildings that are of benefit to the community. 

Our related Access activities are focussed on supporting, maintaining and enhancing the footpath networks within and between our communities; for the benefit of walkers, cyclists and accessibility.   I think we often take for granted the rich network of paths we have in our area; some publicly owned, some across private land, some maintained by external organisations, some neglected, some almost forgotten and barely passable. Our goal is to first document, share and promote what we have,  then to consult and prioritise areas where the network can be enhanced to provide better greener links between our communities. For example improving the link between Upper and Lower Largo and between the villages of Woodside and New Gilston.
