Free transport to Henley and Studley Community Forum

Health, transport and influencing your local policing priorities are just some of the topics on the agenda at the next Henley and Studley Community Forum next month as well as free transport to the meeting.

The meeting is an opportunity for people who live in and around Henley and Studley and the surrounding villages to come along and join the debate.  It starts at 7.30pm on Thursday 16 December at Wootton Wawen Village Hall, Alcester Road, B95 6AY.

The free transport to and from the meeting is courtesy of Back and 4th 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 7pm and 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 Bob Shaw, Team Leader for Alcester North Safer Neighbourhoods Team said:  "The local community's attendance and input at forums is essential in order for us to know and deal effectively with the issues causing concern in Henley and Studley. This is why we welcome free community transport to this forum."

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.
