Information on previous assemblies and forums

The community citizens’ assemblies in each area were followed by the creation of a steering group that consists of local people who live, work or learn in the area, alongside councillors and council officers.

The steering group put together the details of the Community Neighbourhood Plan which were agreed in April 2019 and developed a local action plan to implement the projects that were voted for by local residents.

The final round of Community Citizens’ Assemblies, which were postponed due to the pandemic took place throughout September and October 2020 to marked the end of a 24-month period of engagement and gave residents an opportunity to share their experiences of taking part in the whole assembly process. Residents also got the opportunity to discover which of their chosen projects had been completed since they were agreed last year. A limited number of people were allowed to attend face-to-face while others took part online.

A copy of the event presentation slides and also a recording of the evening assembly can be accessed in the table below.

During October 2020 an independent evaluation of the whole process is being carried out and the recommendations will inform the start of the new process Please do look out for details here in the next coming months.
