Fire Service Improvement Plan, Affordable Warmth with Central Networks talking about fuel poverty as well as handing out some freebies and identifying your priorities for local policing are just some of the topics on the agenda at the next Southam and Feldon Community Forum this month as well as free transport to and from the meeting.
The meeting is an opportunity for people who live in and around the Southam and Feldon area to come along and join in the debate. It starts at 7pm on Wednesday 15 December at Southam Primary School, St James Road, Southam, CV47 0QB.
The free transport to and from the meeting is courtesy of Coachlinks of Harbury and is available to anyone who doesn't have access to their own transport, doesn't like to go out alone at night or maybe has mobility problems. Spaces are limited and must be booked in advance by Friday 10 December. Please call on 01789 260133 or email stratford@warwickshire.gov.uk to arrange your pick up.
Come along and get involved in your local community.
The Safer Neighbourhoods Team surgery will take place before the Community Forum meeting at 6.30pm where officers will be giving feedback on the issues raised earlier at their surgeries and residents will be able to hear the latest on policing in their local area from Warwickshire Police.
Sergeant Chris Cuthbertson, Team Leader for Southam Safer Neighbourhoods Team said: "Residents' attendance at forums is essential to their success. We need to know what the issues affecting the local community are in order to deal with them effectively. This is why we support this trial of free community transport to forums."
Community Forums are an interactive event enabling residents to learn about issues big and small affecting their area, get answers to questions and influence local decision-making. Anyone with a question about a local issue can go along and put it to officers from a range of organisations.
If you would like to suggest an issue for a future Community Forum meeting, or get involved, please contact the WCC Stratford Area Office on 01789 260133 or email: stratfordoffice@warwickshire.gov.uk
Community Forums are part of a countywide initiative involving Warwickshire County Council, District and Borough Councils, NHS Warwickshire, Warwickshire Police and Warwickshire Together partners.
There are 30 forums across Warwickshire, which bring together elected representatives across all tiers of local government - County, District and Borough and Parish, together with a range of other community representatives.
