Dorset Council: Community Conversations

Help shape how we work with communities across Dorset

Dorset Council is bringing together partners from the voluntary sector, community and faith sector, health organisations and town & parish councils for a series of Community Conversations events.

Join us for two events in your area:

Tuesday 15th September
9.30am to 12.30pm
Bridport United Church
East Street
Bridport
DT6 3LJ.

Friday 30th October
9.30am to 12.30pm
Woodmead Halls Community Centre
Hill Road
Lyme Regis
DT7 3PG

LET US KNOW IF YOU WILL BE ATTENDING

These events are for organisations who work with communities in the following areas:

Bridport, Burton Bradstock, Charmouth, Chideock, Chilcombe, Little Bredy, Litton Cheney, Long Bredy and Kingston Russell, Lyme Regis, Puncknowle and Swyre, Shipton Gorge and Symondsbury.

The two sessions are designed to work together, so attending both would be really beneficial.

These are not formal consultations. They are open, honest discussions about how we work together and how we can do things better. By taking part, you will:

• Have a stronger voice in local decision-making
• Influence how services are designed and delivered in your area
• Help shape more joined-up, community-led solutions
• Build relationships with other organisations and partners

What you tell us will directly inform what happens next. This is also an opportunity to move beyond discussion and shape practical changes together. We know we can’t do this alone, and we don’t want to.

Please join us and help shape the future of our communities

Please register your attendance by completing this short form. As places are limited, it really helps us to know how many people plan to attend, as well as any access or dietary requirements you may have.
