The Community Forum was set up in 2006 to serve local residents. This followed a survey held in the village to identify what people wanted from the community, what concerned and worried them, what they could do to help etc.

The Forum communicates the views of residents to the appropriate bodies, be they public bodies, elected bodies or commercial enterprises.

The Forum also takes action in the interests of the community. The Forum has been involved in many areas of village life, including reviving the Village Fair, helping to set up a Youth Club, and getting an extra litter bin for the village.

The Forum is open to all residents of Badwell Ash and its civil parish. New faces and new ideas are always welcome at meetings.
Forum meetings are usually held in the White Horse Inn at 8pm on the last Tuesday of the month. Everyone is welcome.

Since 2007 these meetings have become joint meetings of the Community Forum and the Village Hall (Recreation & Playing Fields) Committee.

Clare Morgan-Hare is currently the Chair of the combined Forum and Village Hall Committee.
