Lack of interest cancels council forum in Sunbury
The spring round of Spelthorne Council area forums has been cancelled.
The meetings between residents and councillors arranged for March 19 at Matthew Arnold School in Staines, March 31 in Stanwell village hall, April 8 at the Salvation Army Centre in Ashford and April 28 at St Paul's College in Sunbury have been axed due to lack of interest.
The council is considering ways to boost attendance and a recommendation will be presented to the executive committee at its meeting on Wednesday, March 18.

The Sunbury Area Forum has not been 'axed due to lack of interest'. It was the best attended forum in the Borough. the decision to cancel the forums in the early part of the year was taken in order for alternative venues, formats and content to be looked at to ensure that the forums continuously improve. Along with fresh advertising and perhaps some changes in the timings we hope to relaunch all the Forums to an even wider cross section of the community.
