Bulwell & Bulwell Forest Area Committee

Nottingham City Council’s Neighbourhood Management Service works to improve the quality of life for residents through involving local people in decision making and changing services provided by the Council and its partners to meet the needs of different areas. A central part of this approach is the Area Committee structure. There are nine Area Committees covering the whole City each comprising two or three adjoining wards. The Area Committees enable ward councillors, along with local residents and other stakeholders, to influence what happens in each area either through direct decision making – such as allocating an annual capital budget – or being consulted on matters that affect the area – such as schools reorganisation.  Click here to download the Area Committees Terms of Reference. There is also access to an archive of meeting agendas, reports and minutes of Area Committee meetings

The Bulwell & Bulwell Forest Area Committee is made up of the two electoral wards of Bulwell & Bulwell Forest. Both wards have three councillors each.

To be confirmed

What do Area Committees do?

• Work with communities to identify issues and needs.
• Develop actions that address the most important issues through partnerships with service providers and agencies
• Scrutinise local services and make sure they are accountable to local people

Also, all Area Committees produce a Local Community Plan through consultation with their community, service providers and partner agencies. In order to progress these actions Area Committees lead on a range of projects, for example: activities for older people; litter and graffiti removal; improvements to street lighting; events to promote health and volunteering.
