Re-live Council Meeting as an Assembly

Re-live Council Meeting as an Assembly
If you missed this year's successful 'Council Meeting as an Assembly' or want to re-live the best moments, visit the Council Meeting as an Assembly section.

Highlights from January's event, which attracted a full house, is now live on the Council's website for residents to enjoy.

Its easy format means that you can either watch it in full or go straight to the specific clip you are interested in because it is split into sections.

Not forgetting those who haven't got access to a computer if you can't view it online the Council has also produced a free DVD of the meeting.

Cllr Geoff M. Roberts, Leader of the Council, said: "This year's event was a great success and once again we thought it would be good to capture it all on video so that our residents can watch it in the comfort of their own home if they missed the event. It's also a nice keepsake for anybody who was involved in things like the presentations because they can re-live the moments once again. So make sure you visit our website or order the DVD to see what happened on the night."

More than 150 residents, young people, councillors and other representatives attended the event at the flagship Investment Centre in Skelmersdale on 31st January to debate the two topics on the agenda: New Health Bodies for West Lancashire, with particular reference to Ormskirk Hospital and also to drugs and alcohol services; and Every Child Matters with a presentation from teachers and pupils from Lathom High School.

Some of the highlights on the night included the lively debates led by compere Dave Guest, BBC North West's Chief Reporter; the presentation of the Chairman's Award; and certificate presentations to members of the West Lancashire Wolves Multi Sports Club, who are a group of people with disabilities who have recently completed a trampolining course

The event can be viewed at the Council Meeting as an Assembly section. For a copy of the free DVD, please contact 01695 577177 or fill in an online form.
