On Tuesday 24 January, Broxbourne Council held a focus group to
explore residents’ perceptions of services for older people in the
Borough. The 11 attendees discussed a number of matters
relating to older people including transport, healthcare, leisure
and technology.
Broxbourne Council
has launched two grants schemes designed to leave a legacy in the
Borough following the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee in June and the
London 2012 Games that commence a month later in July.
The grants are intended to aid local athletes and help
communities celebrate through commemorative events, including
street parties. To apply please complete the online entry forms or e-mail 2012grants@broxbourne.gov.uk
for more information.
Each year, Broxbourne Council presents inspiring
individ
uals from the Borough with
'Citizens of the Year' awards.
Nominations for the 2012 ceremony are now open and residents are
asked to start thinking about identifying those who work
for the community in a special way because many
seek no recognition or personal reward for their achievements.
To make a nomination, please e-mail ceo@broxbourne.gov.uk, telephone
01992 785532 or fax 01992 626917. An online entry
form is available.
