How to take part in a council meeting
We want council meetings to be accessible and welcoming for all. If you’re taking part in a council meeting we recommend you join in-person.
Please let us know in advance if you have any accessibility needs when attending in person.
You can also take part remotely through your personal device such as a computer or mobile phone. Please test your device before you join the meeting.
Unfortunately, when taking part remotely, there can be difficulties with technology. Should there be a fault we will try and accommodate you elsewhere in the meeting. If this is not possible we will provide a written response after the meeting.
