    Barnet Citizens Local Elections Assembly at Alyth

    19:30-21:00

    Following the success of the London Citizens Mayoral Assembly in 2016 with Sadiq Khan and Zac Goldsmith, we have a great opportunity in Barnet to organise for more justice locally. The local Council Elections in early May will be a close contest for the first time in years and o@ers a unique opportunity for us to call for change on the issues a@ecting our communities. Alyth, as a member community of Citizens UK, is hosting the Barnet Election Assembly and welcoming other community groups, schools, faith groups and Middlesex University so we can call on the future leader of Barnet Council to work with us to address the issues we care about. After a process of local listening, we will be asking Cllrs Cornelius and Rawlings to work with us to improve access to, and the delivery of, mental health services, experiences of private renting in the Borough for the most vulnerable in our communities and to work to tackle the alarming air pollution rates. There could be many reasons why you want to come to this forum: to be surrounded by people from the diverse richness of our borough; to represent your institution and give voice to your community; because you care deeply about improving access to, and the delivery of, mental health services or that Barnet o@ers sanctuary for refugees fleeing conflict in Syria; or because you want to show decision makers that we care about democracy and we want them to respect and recognise the role we can play. Whatever your reason, please reserve your place reserve your place with Saskia at saskia@alyth.org.uk or 020 8457 8784
