Crompton Moor User Group and it’s committee meet regularly and form an important link between Oldham Council and the public who use the moor.

Habitat and Landscape Workshop
Date and time: 7 May 2009, 7.15-8.15pm
Shore Edge Church Hall, Buckstones Road.
This workshop will consider people’s views on, and how we might enhance, the conservation and ecological value of Crompton Moor. Coupled with this are the landscape qualities that provide the character of the Moor and how they influence its use. Such qualities include physical attributes (woods, quarries, streams/waterfalls, drystone walls etc.), historical/archaeological features, aesthetic qualities such as views into and out of the Moor etc.
Recreation and Activities Workshop
Date and time: 19 May 2009, 6.30-8pm.
Crompton Library, Farrow Street East, Shaw (please note change of venue)
Focussing on the present use of Crompton Moor and what sort of passive and active recreation might be accommodated in the future. Within this there will be opportunity to consider how different uses can be positively managed to allow inclusive use by the local community and those beyond in an attractive countryside setting.
Safe and Secure Workshop
Date and time: 11 June 2009, 6.30-8pm
Shore Edge Church Hall, Buckstones Road.
Crompton Moor is a beautiful place but there are issues with anti-social behaviour, illegal and illicit uses and uncontrolled access. The time will be used to gain views on what issues there are and how these might be addressed and positively managed.
Access and Interpretation Workshop
Date and time: 25 June 2009, 6.30-8pm
Shore Edge Church Hall, Buckstones Road.
Through the previous workshops views on how the more physical aspects of Crompton Moor could be enhanced will have been gained. This workshop is to do with people: who uses and could use the Moor, how do we enable people to access such a great location, what can be done to help people get the most from their visit.
