Community Committee meetings
There are eight Community Committees in Salford, one for each Neighbourhood Area. They support the residents in Salford and make decisions about priorities for the area - be it providing youth activities; improving a local park or improving road safety.
Community Committees are open meetings that have been set up to ensure local residents can influence decisions about their neighbourhoods. Each Community Committee has a budget and is supported by its own Neighbourhood Management Team which works to put the priorities into action.
Membership
Membership of Community Committees is made up of councillors and representatives of recognised community groups, typically tenants’ or residents’ associations and voluntary groups. These constitute the voting members. Individuals with no representative role are welcome and encouraged to attend, do not have a right to vote. Officers from the council and other organisations attend to report on new developments in the area, and seek opinions of the community.
Getting involved
If you are interested in finding out more about community committees or you are thinking of becoming a member, you should talk to your local Neighbourhood Manager or Community Development Worker. Each Community Committee meets at a local venue approximately every two months. The table below shows when and where the meetings will be held, with links to each of the eight teams and the latest minutes for each committee.
