The residents group has been running regular residents’ meetings to address specific topics and issues affection our town. This has been mostly about the doctor’s surgery and other planning issues. The next meeting will be all about crime and anti-social behaviour.

For the September meeting there will be three guest speakers from Bedfordshire Police:

• The new Police and Crime Commissioner, John Tizard.
• Inspector Russell Goldsmith
• Sgt Sarah Cluff

The Wixams Joint Action Group attended Wixams on Tuesday 20th August and will be attending the meeting too. They’ll be set in the foyer and available to engage with residents.

Tuesday 3rd September
7 to 8:30 pm
Lakeview Village Hall

• From 6:30 the Wixams Joint Action group will be available in the village hall foyer to meet residents, hear feedback and answer questions.
• At 7pm the main meeting will start in the hall. We have PCC John Tizard and Inspector Russell Goldsmith giving updates on their plans for Bedfordshire and the issues in Wixams specifically. There will be an opportunity to ask questions and highlight the things which have affected you and the community.
• The meeting will finish by 8:30 and the representatives have been asked to stay around until 9 to speak to residents directly. The JAG will members will still be around too.

With so many issues in Wixams we need residents to come along and show support, things can only improve if we work together as a community.
