Our local neighbourhood forum has always been about giving the people of Aspatria a voice. It was set up fifteen years ago by the County Council and is still working hard supporting local projects and representing the interests of Aspatria residents. Pat Ackred works for the forum and is the local neighbourhood development officer. It's a long title but Pat has a key role. The forum ensures that everyone gets to have their say.

Janice and Henry Barker have created their website to give the residents of Aspatria information on what issues are affecting the town, a forum for new ideas and an opportunity to have their say.
