RESIDENTS are being invited to have their say on anti-social behaviour at a public meeting in Glossop.

High Peak Borough Council and Derbyshire County Council joined forces to set up Glossopdale Area Forum earlier this year.

The forum aims to allow residents to be more involved in local service decisions which affect them.

Anti-social behaviour has been highlighted as a top priority and will be discussed at a meeting on Wednesday 7 September.

Police will kick off the evening with a presentation on neighbourhood policing followed by a question and answer session for members of the public.

High Peak Council Leader David Lomax said: "Area forums promote joint working between the public, private and voluntary sectors and the community and we want as many people as possible to come along."

The meeting is at Glossopdale Community College, Newshaw Lane, Hadfield at 7pm. Light refreshments will be available from 6.30pm. Specific questions should be submitted to Marika Rajah at High Peak Borough Council by Monday, 5 September.
