Strengthening our relationships
As part of our intention for greater engagement with the community, the Town Council is seeking to strengthen its relationships with organisations and opinion forming bodies.  More details about the way forward can be found in this website.

We are keen to receive feedback on our services and suggestions on how, in partnership, new areas of service might be developed.  We have already contacted several groups about this but realise we will have missed many so if you think you are among these, please respond via e-mail to the following:

• Could you advise us of the contact details of a person within your organisation who is willing to be a key contact on matters relating to the Town Council – an e-mail address would be preferable. Are you willing for the contact details to be held on our database?
• Are there ways in which you consider the Town Council could develop its services? If so, are you willing to assist and in what way?
• If you produce a newsletter or have your own website, would you be interested in including articles provided by the Town Council? It would also be helpful to know the approximate size and distribution of your newsletter (ie the number of recipients/area)
• If your organisation does not wish for further contact from the Town Council please let us know

Please note that no new applications for grant funding by the Town Council are being considered.

We look forward to hearing from you.
