Conwy county residents will have the opportunity to have their say on issues affecting tourism, health and transport within their communities.

Conwy County Borough Council (CCBC) have set up local area forums with the aim of bringing councillors closer to their constituents and giving the community their chance to have a say on important matters.

An engagement event will be held on Saturday, at the council chamber at Bodlondeb in Conwy, for residents from Llanfairfechan, Penmaenmawr, Henryd, Conwy, Deganwy, Glan Conwy or Llandudno Junction to have their say on local priorities - with a focus on tourism, health and transport.

Cllr Emma Leighton-Jones, Chair of the Forum, said: "We’re keen for the public to participate and engage on what is important to local communities.

"The forum has the potential to stimulate cohesive communities and growth, and is an important part of local democracy."

The event on Saturday at Bodlondeb will run from 10.30 (doors open 10.00) until 12.30pm.
