October 12th – 16th is North East Lincolnshire Council Local Democracy Week
People in N E Lincolnshire are being encouraged to take an active part in their community during NELC’s local democracy week which begins on Monday 12th October.
The campaign is intended to show some of the many ways that young people and adults can become involved in local democracy.
The programme for the week begins on Monday 12th October with the Young People’s Question Time at the Parkway Cinema, Cleethorpes, from 7.00pm.
This event, similar in format to Question Time on the BBC, will give children and young people the opportunity to put questions to a panel of community leaders.
On Tuesday 13th October I shall be in Freshney Place along with other Councillors to talk to the public about the work of a Local Councillor.
On Wednesday and Thursday there will be sessions to explain how you can become a local councillor . and give information and advice to anyone who is interested in representing their local community. The Wednesday session takes place from 6pm to 9pm and the Thursday one is from 2.00pm to 5.00pm.
The week concludes on Friday from 9.00am to 3.00pm with the annual Council for Young People Conference.
