Residents in Wolverhampton will be able to raise neighbourhood concerns directly with police, councillors and community services at the next Love Your Community sessions, beginning on Tuesday 9 June.
The sessions are free, open to all, and are being held across several wards between 9 and 23 June. The first confirmed meeting is a special session at Bilston Town Hall on Tuesday 9 June from 6.30pm to 8pm, with Councillor Stephen Simkins, Leader of the Council, on the panel.
The meetings are designed as drop-in community forums rather than formal ticketed events. Residents can use them to talk about local issues, hear about activities taking place nearby and share what they think should be prioritised in their neighbourhoods.
Free sessions across Wolverhampton wards
The Love Your Community sessions are held in each ward on a regular basis, with the latest confirmed dates covering Bilston, East Park, Spring Vale, Wednesfield South and Ettingshall North.
Representatives from Wolverhampton Police, the City of Wolverhampton Council, Wolverhampton’s Anti-Social Behaviour team and other community services are expected to attend, including groups providing local carer support. The format gives residents a direct route to speak with the organisations involved in day-to-day neighbourhood matters.
For anyone deciding whether to go, the practical details are straightforward: entry is free, all are welcome, and no specific eligibility requirement has been listed by the council.

|---|---|
| Tuesday 9 June | Bilston Town Hall, 6.30pm to 8pm |
| Wednesday 10 June | East Park, Parish Church of Saint Matthew, 6pm |
| Friday 12 June | Spring Vale Library, 11am |
| Thursday 18 June | Bentley Bridge Retail Park, Wednesfield South, 4pm |

What residents can raise at the meetings
The confirmed sessions give residents space to discuss priorities for their area, from local issues affecting streets and shared spaces to community activities already happening nearby.
The council says the meetings are also intended to help people connect with neighbours and businesses, and to speak directly with police, councillors and community services. That makes the sessions useful for residents who want to report recurring concerns, ask who is responsible for a local matter, or find out what is already being planned in their ward.
Councillor Obaida Ahmed, Cabinet Member for Health, Wellbeing and Community, described the sessions as a forum for residents to meet organisations and discuss neighbourhood priorities.
“Please come along to find out what’s happening in your area, tell us what’s important for your neighbourhood, help improve your local spaces, connect with your neighbours and businesses, and speak with police, councillors and community services,” she said.
