Faiths4Change is involved in a new multiagency partnership project branded ‘Operation Grassroots’. It's taking place in the Daneshouse with Stoneyholme Ward. It has been recognised that because of the current financial cutbacks many of our former partners are no longer here to assist and support us in forging links to access our local communities. With this in mind it was decided that we would raise our profile and seek out ways to get into the heart and grassroots of the community.

Representatives from various agencies including the Fire Service, Police, Street Scene officers, Help Direct, Domestic Violence, Faiths4Change, the Women’s Centre, Building Bridges in Burnley will offer advice and information and reassurance to residents that their local services are working together to make their community a safer place to live in.

The very first week’s surgery of Operation Grassroots was launched by Mayor and Mayoress on the 3rd May.

The contact at Asda is Michelle Hall (Community rep for Asda).

A range of environmental, economic, social and health partners are working together across Liverpool City Region to put forward a submission to Government to form a Local Nature Partnership. The Partnership will value and maximise opportunities from the City’s Region’s natural environmental assets and services to help ensure that the natural environment is a key criterion in all strategic decision-making and that the quality of the City Region’s natural assets attracts and engages investors, businesses, visitors and residents.

Please see the attached leaflet for more information and please do complete the online survey - it will only take a couple of minutes and is your opportunity to shape this important partnership.

The forum will enable local stakeholders - businesses, local authorities and other public bodies, environmental organisations, health bodies and community groups - to voice their opinions on the overall aim and objectives of the Local Nature Partnership and its key priorities. Please come along!

Attendance at the forum is free, but we are expecting a lot of interest and places will be booked on a first come, first served basis so please do get in touch as soon as possible. If you want to book a place or find out more about the Liverpool City Region Local Nature Partnership, please contact Bo White or Merseyside Environmental Advisory Service (0151-934-4951).

HOW DO WE KEEP THE PARTY GOING ONCE THE MUSIC'S STOPPED?
Last year the country went crazy for cupcakes, bunting and flags to celebrate the royal wedding.
This year we've got even more reasons to celebrate with the Jubilee and the Olympics. By the time this event takes place I'm sure everyone will have a defined role to organise your street events - some will be picking out quick and easy street food recipes, others are ensuring that the road closure runs smoothly and the risk assessments are in place.
But who is looking to the future?
Join Neighbourhoods NW and Warrington Voluntary Action and together we will explore your stories, experiences and ideas to build upon the community events energy and commitment from the volunteers to create long term, sustaining change for your neighbourhoods.
This event is free for members of Neighbourhoods NW: £50 for non members: EARLY BIRD RATE: £25, BOOK BEFORE 30TH MAY
