Wigton and District Neighbourhood Forum will welcome Nick Fardon from Allerdale Borough Council to their meeting at 7.00pm in the Glass House Wigton on Wednesday 7th December.
Nick will outline Allerdale Borough Council's vision for the future and explain the impact it will have and the opportunities it can provide for Wigton and District.
The Forum will also receive an update from Wigton Youth Station and other local youth groups about their recent activities.
The Neighbourhood Forum enables people to come together to focus on issues of local interest or concern. It offers an opportunity for groups and individuals to network, exchange information and to publicise events and activities. It also provides grants to local groups for community projects and helps to identify other sources of funding.
John Crouch, local county councillor for Wigton says:
"The Neighbourhood Forum is the ideal opportunity for people to keep up to date with local issues. It is also the perfect opportunity for residents to raise any concerns or issues that are important to them and their community. I hope people are able to come along to the meeting on Wednesday."
