SLC wants to hear from you

- EMYLIE HOWIE

South Lanarkshir­e residents are being urged to share their views on the future delivery of public services within the area.

The call has come from the local Community Planning Partnershi­p, which brings together public bodies – including South Lanarkshir­e Council (SLC) – to work together, and with local communitie­s.

A key aim is to design and deliver better services that make a real difference to people’s lives. As part of this, the partnershi­p is looking to hear from local people about what they think is working well in the area and how to prioritise services for the future.

Views will be used to help shape the council and community partnershi­p plans and can be given by taking part in an online survey.

Paul Manning from SLC said:“The strength of partnershi­p working has been more apparent than ever as the various public organisati­ons have pulled together during the COVID pandemic.

“Our local communitie­s themselves have been absolutely central to those efforts, with volunteers and local groups working with us to deliver and shape services.

“This survey is an important chance for these groups and all individual residents to continue to shape how services are delivered in the future.”

Anyone who wants to take part but cannot engage with the online survey can request a paper version by writing to community engagement team, South Lanarkshir­e Council, Floor 6, Almada Street, Hamilton ML3 0AA.
