RESIDENTS across South Gloucestershire are being encouraged to have their say on local decision making at the next round of area forum meetings.


South Gloucestershire Council is hosting the open sessions later this month to give members members of the public a chance to put questions to councillors and officers on any matter in their area.


A meeting will take place in Thornbury on Wednesday, September 16, at Turnberrie’s Community Centre on 7pm.


Chipping Sodbury Baptist Church will host a meeting on the following evening, again at 7pm.


On the agenda for this round of meetings will be the allocation of New Homes Bonus and community grants, and a progress update on the Local Transport Capital Programme 2015/16.
