What is a Neighbourhood Forum?
Neighbourhood Forums give you the chance to speak about what’s happening in your area and get your voice heard. The Forum provides you with an opportunity to resolve problems affecting your local neighbourhood. Partners may also be invited along to the Forums to give information on local services. The main priority of the Neighbourhood Forums is to monitor the Neighbourhood Action Plan and ensure its delivery. The meetings will be chaired by an independent resident that shall be elected by Forum members.
If you are interested in becoming a member of your local Forum then please complete the expression of interest form below:

Neighbourhood Forum Terms of Reference
Forums are just one of the many ways that you can become involved in your local community. If you would like more information or are interested in joining a Forum then please contact your Neighbourhood Co-ordinator for your area.
You can still contact your Borough Councillor, Parish Council or attend a PACT (Partners and Communities Together) meeting at any time to discuss your area. Information on these meetings can also be found through the diary of events or by contacting your Neighbourhood Co-ordinator.
