The Big Conversation event in June started us talking about Haslingfield’s future. Now the Haslingfield Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group would like to invite you to a series of mini conversations over a cup of tea or coffee to delve deeper into some of the topics raised in June.
We are planning a series of these ‘tea parties’ to cover a range of topics over the coming months. These will be small, informal groups of people getting together to talk over specific issues with our neighbours. We’ll use the information we gather from these events to help shape the policies of our Neighbourhood Plan. This is an opportunity to find out more about real issues that the Neighbourhood Plan can address for our village – and a chance for you to be involved in making that happen.
The first three tea parties are listed below. Anyone is welcome to attend one or all of these events: Read more

Haslingfield Parish Council has put together a short survey to find out the good and bad bits of being a young person in Haslingfield and Harlton. We’ll be looking at your answers to see if there is anything else we can provide or help with, to make growing up here a better experience.
