Engaging and Involving Communities in North East Sheffield
Contact: 0114 203 7562 http://www.sheffield.gov.uk/northeast
The North East Community Assembly has been replaced by a new model of Locality Working. The new team will support local ward councillors as community leaders.
The new approach still has the same North East area and covers the four wards of Burngreave, Firth Park, Shiregreen and Brightside and Southey.
Each Ward has a lead Ward Councillor. For Burngreave Ward this is Councillor Talib Hussain. Your other councillors are Councillor Ibrar Hussain and Councillor Jackie Drayton.
The North East Locality Officer is Dave Aspinall and is supported by a Lead Council Officer, in Burngreave this is Chris Shaw the Director of Health Improvement.
A Ward Plan will be produced every year and a small amount of money will be allocated to assist with the priorities in the plan.
The current Burngreave Ward Plan priorities are:
Community Support and Wellbeing
Environment and Public Realm
Cohesion and Safety
Children, Young People and Families
The four wards will feed into a Local Area Partnership (LAP) to address common issues that exist across all the wards. This is chaired by Councillor Peter Price.
The Ward Councillors are keen to hear from you about your issues and priorities in the Ward. Four ward meetings will be organised throughout the year at various locations around the area. You can either contact the councillors directly or you can ring Dave Aspinall on 0114 203 7562 0771 8512 929 or e-mail him at dave.aspinall@sheffield.gov.uk
