Community Support and Engagement

Children and Young Peoples Support:

We are working with various Childrens and Young Peoples Groups and Networks in Hillsborough

to support and develop local activities. In August we were one of the partners for the hugely successful Play day event in Hillsborough Park, sponsoring and supporting the Den Building activity.

Community Voices:

We are looking to improve our work in this area, by holding "Open Forum" meetings on specific topics where people can come and voice their opinions, and by facilitating Forums for businesses, residents and others. In addition we want to involve local people and businesses in being part of delivering projects locally, and so we are looking at setting up Working Groups to help organise things like:

Hillsborough in Bloom and Green Hillsborough

Hillsborough Anti Graffiti Group

Farmers Market

Minutes of the Residents Forum can be downloaded from the bottom of this page.

We are also hoping to use HFTV as a means of regularly asking local people about local issues and concerns, and raising these with the relevant agencies.

Community Links and Support:

We can offer signposting and support to local community groups who are looking for grants or just trying

to find their way around the various local networks.

We can also help publicise local events through this website, and through local networks.
