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

Stall_Booking_Form 25.6.11Lozells Methodist Community Centre is hosting a wedding fayre for the whole community – Christian and Non-Christian. Stall holders are welcome. If you would like a stall please follow the link to download a form.

A fun event with a good purpose.

Neighbourhood Forum public meetings are THE place to find out about what’s happening in Lozells but oh dear they take place in the evenings and usually women with family commitments cannot attend.

So….. YOUR Neighbourhood Forum is arranging its next meeting during the day so mums and dads usually busy with kids in the early evening can come if they are free in the day.

The meeting is taking place at Anglesey Infant School on Wednesday May 25th starting with refreshments at 9.00, just after you have dropped the kids at school.

We really hope you can come.

….was a fantastic day for the community.  Over 1,000 people including 40 community and mainstream partners came together in Georges Park to enjoy the sunshine, the bouncy castles, football, ice cream, mountain bikes, and talk to stall holders about services  residents can access for free.
