In 2009 we renamed the parish pastoral council the Parish Forum in an attempt to make it more accessible to the entire parish. There are no elected members of the forum although there are a number of attendees who represent sub committees or interest groups. All are welcome to attend either regularly or on an ad hoc basis. The meetings are in open format. The forum provides a venue for opinions and issues to be raised and for significant decisions to be taken. The meeting is chaired by the Fr John and the parish chairman. Various minutes and papers can be found below. This year we moved to having themes for each meeting, which hopefully will cover the most pressing issues in the parish.
