Local government reorganisation presents an opportunity to strengthen our links with residents by boosting our local community engagement.
We’ll be establishing Community Boards to bring people together and create real opportunities for local collaboration and decision making in towns and villages.
Once up and running, these boards will give communities a chance to have their say, connect with decision-makers, access information, and work together to improve their local areas.
To ensure that these boards have a strong connection between residents, groups and public service organisations, we expect them to include representatives from:
- Health partners
- Surrey Police
- Large Voluntary Community Social Enterprise groups
- Local residents and community groups
- Local councillors
- Town and Parish Councils
- Residents Associations
Shape the future of our Community Boards
We want you to be part of this journey. Residents will have the chance to help shape these boards. By understanding the specific needs of the local areas, we can focus on the issues that matter most and make a lasting difference.
We’ll be sharing more information on how you can get involved soon, so make sure to follow us on social media and sign up to Surrey Matters to find out more.
If you have any further questions on local government reorganisation and community boards, you can email us directly at devolutionandlgr@surreycc.gov.uk.
