Halewood Town Council strives to ensure the involvement of residents in decisions that may have a direct impact on their lives, believing this makes for an empowered and strong community. Citizens of Halewood are never shy of making their views known and have succeeded on many occasions in changing plans or approaches that would impact adversely on the township.
The Town Council has and will continue to consult the community regarding its significant plans or developments. We will aim to undertake consultation in ways that are meaningful and inclusive for the community and, dependent on the issue being consulted, will stage consultations over many weeks using different formats.
Any consultations we run will be hosted here and we will always post a report on the completion of a consultation and after sharing findings with Town Councillors.
