The Hackbridge, St Helier and The Wrythe Local Committee was scheduled to discuss community group updates, funding opportunities, and public questions. The meeting agenda also included the approval of minutes from the previous meeting and consideration of any urgent business.

Community Showcase

The committee was scheduled to receive updates from local community groups, providing an opportunity for residents to learn about their work and how to get involved. This segment aims to highlight the contributions of organisations within the Hackbridge, St Helier, and The Wrythe areas.

Neighbourhood Fund and Wider Funding Opportunities

A key item on the agenda was the setting of local priorities for the Neighbourhood Fund. This would involve an overview of what the fund can be used for and the application timescales. Additionally, the committee was set to receive an update on wider funding opportunities available to support local initiatives.

Public Questions

The meeting was scheduled to include a session for public questions, allowing residents to raise local issues. Questions were to be submitted in advance via the council's website, with written responses provided either before or after the meeting depending on submission timing. Attendees would also have the opportunity to ask one follow-up question relevant to their original submission.

Minutes of the Previous Meeting

The committee was scheduled to approve the minutes from its previous meeting, which took place on 22 January 2026. This is a standard procedure to ensure the accuracy of the record of past discussions and decisions.

Urgent Business

The agenda also allowed for the consideration of any urgent business that, in the view of the Chair, Councillor Colin Stears, required immediate attention due to special circumstances, in accordance with Section 100B(4) of the Local Government Act 1972.
