A cross-generational community group from North Solihull is inviting residents to help them build bridges between young and older people.
Communities for You – a group made up of young and older people – is hosting a Question Time session, for residents to put their questions to a diverse panel of experts.
The panel will feature Solihull Council’s Director for Places Anne Brereton, Nicola Holmes from Solihull Council’s Youth Service, young resident Beth Mears, a senior Police manager and a representative from Solihull Youth Council.
The event will be an opportunity to talk about a range of subjects, from, parks and open space, anti-social behaviour and fear of crime through to finding activities for people of all ages and looking at how relationships between young and old can be built and how different generations can understand each other’s concerns.
The event takes place on Friday 25 March at the Loft Space in Chelmsley Wood library and 10 spaces have been reserved for any residents who want to attend.
Councillor Norman Davies, Cabinet Member for Children and Young People, said: “This event shows young people taking the initiative and working with adults to improve relationships between people from different generations, which has to be applauded. I look forward to hearing about what gets discussed at the session.”
For more information and to register an interest in filling one of the residents’ spaces, please contact Terrie on 0845 5212436.
