Survey to reveal local issues "crying out" for urgent action

HUNDREDS of people in and around Fordbridge have taken part in a large-scale survey, the results of which are due to be announced next month.
Over the summer, CAN (Community Action Network) interviewed over 400 residents about what they liked most about the neighbourhood and the improvements they would like to see.
CAN will use this research to kick-start a drive for community action in these key areas.
The poll's findings will be revealed at an event at Bosworth Community Centre on Sunday, October 15. The event will also celebrate existing community activities, with various local groups expected to attend.
Simeon Bright, CAN's chair, said: "[We] would like to say thank you to all those that took part in the research and especially our amazing volunteers.
"This event will be a chance for people to see what the key themes are that people are passionate about in this area.
"The results of the research make powerful reading and cry out for urgent action. The identification of these issues is just the beginning – we all now need to come together to see how we can take action to address them."
