Talk2Croydon
A groundbreaking website is available to help local people get involved in decisions that affect you and your communities.
The Talk2Croydon website gives residents a platform to discuss public services, regardless of whether they are run by the council, the NHS, the police or even the voluntary sector.
As well as being able to raise issues that matter to you, knowing that the site will be viewed by the borough's decision makers, you are able to find out what changes as a result of your contribution.
By logging on to www.talk2croydon.co.uk you can:
- start a buzz - an online discussion or campaign around a particular topic – or add your views to an existing buzz
- link up with Croydon projects that help you take part in improving your community
- network with others who share similar work or concerns.
The site is a hub for public engagement activities and includes a searchable database of activities, a calendar of events and a skills database.
To make sure it's accessible to everyone, including those traditionally hard-to-reach, six local community groups representing young people, BME communities, refugees, disabled people, people with learning difficulties and mental health service users have contributed to design of the site.
Managed by Croydon Voluntary Action and supported by Croydon Council, Croydon Primary Care Trust and Mayday Healthcare NHS Trust, the site was launched in September 2007.
