Trudy is bringing together community leaders to hear more about priorities and local plans for their areas.
Trudy Harrison MP is hosting the inaugural session with parish, borough and county councillors from Millom, Bootle, Whicham, Ulpha and Waberthwaite, as well as education and health professionals from Millom School and Waterloo House Surgery.
Over the coming months, Mrs Harrison will be hosting sessions with communities across Copeland aiming to provide advice and guidance on the development of local community plans.
The meeting comes just days before the launch of Step 3 of the roadmap to recovery, providing an opportunity to consider any plans already in place as part of the Government’s Build Back Better initiatives.
Trudy said: “At the forefront of our national recovery is the government’s plan to support economic growth through significant investment in infrastructure, skills and innovation.
“I look forward to facilitating parish, borough and county councillors, along with business people, private investors, health and education professionals from Millom and Haverigg, Whicham, Silecroft, Ulpha, Bootle and Waberthwaite next week to develop community projects.
“We have seen from the vaccine roll out that when the determination of volunteers and community leaders is harnessed, the results can be outstanding – I hope we can continue to make progress.”
