All this and much, much more - is all yours with Norwood Forum.
Looking back over a year in the life of our community
Please join us on Saturday 13 July at 2:00pm to celebrate all that's brilliant about our amazing community. We will look back over the past 12 months - both the challenges and successes, and discuss some of the big issues we are facing in the coming year - as well as the fun things. We will provide further information about Site 18 and the Council's SADPD, hear from Thriving Norwood projects and collectively design the next stage of our campaign on Public Transport and Active Travel.
