Saturday July 9th PEOPLES CONFERENCE 2011
I think this is going to be an event not to miss if you care about Lozells and want to have a say in its future. The conference is being called by Councillor Waseem Zaffar. He has plans to bring together all the active citizens in Lozells to address situations no longer taken care of by the local authority because of the cuts. His idea is to set up 5 Neighbourhood Forums. Secondly he wants to bring people together to talk about local affairs under 8 headings – Community Safety, Health, Women, Children and Young People, Housing and the Environment, Employment and Business, and Voluntary and Community groups.
The conference is at City College on the Soho Rd : 10.30-2pm. Call Raj Rattu on 07515 531 272 to register or email him at rajinder@neighbourhoodconsultancy.co.uk
