Neighbourhood Forums
Want to see your area improved?

- Bins not being collected?
- Problems with young people hanging around your shops?
- Want information on a planning appeal?
Neighbourhood Forums are your opportunity to bring issues about your community to the organisations who are working in Trafford.
The forums are held regularly in your area, throughout the year and allow you direct access to council officers, the police, health services, housing associations, and your local councillors. They will listen to your views, and take forward actions to resolve any issues you have.

How do the forums work?
Open Forum - 6pm - 7pm
The Open Forum features tables around the room, each with an officer from a particular organisation available to talk with you.
Once you have discussed your issue, you will be given a written account of the problem, information offered, possible actions to resolve it and contact details for updates. If the information you require can't be given on the evening, our system ensures that you will receive a reply within 7 days.
Discussion Forum - 7pm - 8pm
The Discussion Forum offers an opportunity to debate local issues with other residents, councillors and officers and be made aware of how local organisations are working to tackle them.
The themes for the discussion are varied and are suggested by residents, highlighting what matters the most in your area, for example 'Local policing', 'Litter and re-cycling problems', and 'Opportunities for young people'.
