Our Lewisham, Our Say :
Thursday, 19th August, 2010
(3.30 - 5.30 pm)
Honor Oak Community Centre, 50, Turnham Road, Brockley, London, SE4 2JD
I
would like to invite you to join me and other key stakeholders in open
dialogue about how we face up to the forthcoming changes.The public
spending cuts mean that Lewisham Council may have to reduce its spending
by up to £60 million over the next three years. Over the last three years
we have saved around £26 million by cuttings waste and becoming more and
more efficient. We will continue to do that, but the sums we will need to
save over the next three years mean we will need to fundamentally change
the way we deliver our public services. The Council is having a wide
dialogue with key stakeholders through "Our Lewisham, Our Say" and
will be asking stakeholders which Council services they value most, what
they think the Council could do less of, and where they think they could
do more themselves to ease the pressure on public services. As part of
this we would like to consult with you in relation to specific crime
reduction services over the summer. I would be grateful if you could
confirm your attendance by either calling tel. 020 8314 8561 or emailing
Diana.moore@lewisham.gov.uk.
