Local residents from Mountsorrel have been invited to walk with representatives from Leicestershire County Council, the Borough Council, the Parish Council, the Police and other local organisations on Monday, 19 May.
This Ward Walk will is intended to allow local residents to discuss their ideas and concerns for the area with senior representatives from various agencies who will be able to follow up on the issues identified.
Cllr. Richard Shepherd (Conservative councillor for Quorn & Mountsorrel Castle), Leader of CBC, said: “We are very keen to involve local communities and listen to their needs. By listening to people’s needs and, where possible, acting upon them, we can really make a difference.
“We are planning a regular pattern of ward walks in neighbourhoods across the Borough. One already undertaken was in Syston which was extremely successful and all the partners are currently working together to address the issues raised.”
Inspector Cathy Yallop, Commander of Charnwood Local Policing Unit said; “Ward walks are a really useful way of finding out what issues are affecting communities and being able to immediately identify the correct agency to tackle those issues whether they are related to crime, litter, graffiti, vandalism, abandoned cars, nuisance neighbours or anything else that affects the quality of people’s lives. By working with other agencies, and looking at the issues together, we can ensure action is taken to try and find a solution.”
The 1 1/2 hour afternoon walk will start at Mountsorrel Library and finish at the Methodist Church, Church Hill Road, Mountsorrel. People can join the walk at any point.
2.00 pm – 3.00 pm – Drop in session Mountsorrel Library
3.00 pm – 4.30 pm – Ward Walk
4.30 pm – 5.30 pm – Drop in session Methodist Church, Church Hill Road, Mountsorrel
