Let's Talk Central

Let's Talk Central (from Central Bedfordshire Council) - we really want to hear from the people of Central Bedfordshire! You can find out more about this at our website www.letstalkcentral.com

The website asks the following questions:

• What's the best thing about where you live?
• What do you think is special about Central Bedfordshire?
• What challenges do you think Central Bedfordshire will face in the future?
• What are your hopes for Central Bedfordshire in the future?

Following us on:

• Twitter - www.twitter.com/letstalkcentral
• Facebook - www.facebook.com/pages/Central-Bedfordshire/Lets-Talk-Central/124572807574065?ref=ts&__a=6

We really want to be able to tap into existing groups of local residents to ensure we have a representative mix of views being added to Let's Talk Central, so it would be great if you could get involved. We don't want this to be a traditional Council consultation exercise and really hope that the local community comes to see Let's Talk Central as a place where they can have respectful but candid conversations about the place where they live
