Beaconsfield Local Area Forum to be relaunched

Alan Walters, Chairman of Beaconsfield Local Area Forum.

The Beaconsfield Local Area Forum will be relaunched at its summer meeting on Thursday 6th July 2017 at 7.00pm.

Recently elected County Councillor Alan Walters (pictured above), who will chair the Forum, said he wanted to open it up to representatives of local organisations.

‘The Beaconsfield Forum is the County Council’s main focus for hearing the views of residents and prioritising work for the Beaconsfield area,‘ said Alan. ‘It’s where local people can get involved in the decisions of the County Council, and it’s a good meeting point for organisations working together.‘

In the past the Forum, made up of town, district and county councillors, has focused on parking problems in the town. Alan says that as this work is coming to fruition, it’s time a reformed Forum looked more widely at Beaconsfield issues and drew in groups representing community life in the town.

The annual budget of the Forum is £22,100, all of which will be allocated following the inaugural meeting.
