Your Community Forums next meeting is scheduled to take place on Tuesday 10th November at Crawford Memorial Hall, Bidford at 7pm.

The only topic for discussion at this forum will be:

" Fire & Rescue Public Consultation
Theme: A fitter stronger Fire & Rescue Service - Exploring the Options for a Local Solution

The portfolio holder for Community Safety Cllr Richard Hobbs and Deputy Chief Fire Office Glen Ranger will be in attendance.
 
"Where as the Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service consultation meetings have been a question and answer format, it is hoped that the Alcester and Bidford Community Forum will debate the issue looking at the plan, its options, explore the good points and look at other solutions to future proof Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service without having to resort to close retained fire stations," says Cllr Kim James, Chairman of Alcester and Bidford Community Forum.
 
There will be an additional Community Forum for the Alcester and Bidford area on Wednesday 25 November from 6.30pm at Aston Cantlow Village Hall, where the normal business of the forum will be carried out.

If you have a specific concern or problem, then drop in to the local surgery from 6.30pm to 7pm where you will be able to speak to your local policing Safer Neighbourhoods Team, Councillors and Officers from Warwickshire County and Stratford-on-Avon District Councils. Residents can hear the latest on policing in their local area and officers from Warwickshire Police will feed back on issues raised at earlier surgeries.
