Stratford’s Community Forums help lead to change

Thursday 6th November, 2008

Members of the public can make a difference to their community by having their say on the issues that matter most to them.

Residents in the Stratford District are being invited to attend their local Community Forum meeting where they have the opportunity to raise neighbourhood issues with County, District and Parish Councillors, local police and other local organisations.

Members of the public can make a difference to their community by having their say on the issues that matter most to them with relevant agencies and then discuss possible solutions. Because Community Forums are supported by many different agencies, that are also present at the meetings, they are an efficient and effective way of problem solving.

Community Forums replace existing Partners and Communities Together (PACT) meeting arrangements across the district. A local surgery take places before the main meeting which provides people with the chance to raise specific issues with a police officer or council representative.

Community Forums take place around the district this month and each one welcomes anyone with an interest in the local areas to come along and share their views and concerns. Topics for discussion will include Safer Neighbourhood Policing and Youth Issues (Wellesbourne & Kineton Forum).
