A message from Penny Short:

Calling all children, young people and their parents! – your opinion is needed.

The next Haddington & Lammermuir Area Partnership Meeting is on Wednesday 12th November. This will focus on opportunities for children and young people in the area and I will be attending as a representative from Garvald and Morham Community Council.

We want to support children in our area to get the best start in life, providing our young people with opportunities to become successful learners, confident individuals, effective contributors and responsible citizens.  During the meeting we will be discussing the question “What do you believe are the specific issues affecting the opportunities for children and young people in the ward and what can be done to address them?” and I’d love to hear what you think.

What can we do to enhance opportunities for children?  If anyone has any thoughts or ideas please let me know using the contact form below, before 12th November. The lack of effective broadband is obviously an issue and transport also impacts on opportunities for kids and young people. Both of these issues will be discussed in greater detail at future meetings, along with any other suggestions put forward by you and those attending the meeting.

Thank you.

Penny Short – Chair of Garvald & Morham Community Council
