Neighbourhood Forum Status renewal
STRA was granted legal planning rights as Forum in 2012. STRA Forum has been the voice of the residents and businesses for 10 years and we have applied to the Council to renew. If STRA's Forum status is not renewed the VOICE of the community will be silenced. Forum status provides the community with a legal voice to preserve our green spaces, to voice our concerns with the building of high rises, to improve transport in the area, to speak collectively for the community when confronted with issues that are detrimental to the area or controversial …… Sudbury in Bloom, Litter picking, Paan spitting, Antisocial behaviour, Street drinking, saving the Sudbury Town Car Park and more …..
The VOICE of the FORUM is More powerful than the individual
