Neighbourhood Board Recruitment

Join the Slade Green Neighbourhood Board

Help shape how £20 million is invested in your area

We’re looking for local people to join the Pride in Place Neighbourhood Board in Slade Green. This group will help decide how a £20 million investment from central government is used to improve the area over the next 10 years.

As a board member, you’ll be a voice for your community, helping make sure decisions reflect what local people really want and need.

Who we’re looking for

You don’t need to be an expert — we’re looking for people who care about Slade Green and want to make a difference.

It would be great if you:

• Live or work in Slade Green.
• Have ideas about how the area could be improved.
• Have been involved in local groups, activities or community projects (big or small).
• Know people locally and can help reach different voices in the community.
• Care about giving local people a say and making sure everyone is included.
• Are happy working with others like residents, businesses and the council.

This is an inclusive recruitment and we welcome applications from all types of people, at all stages of life.

What you’ll be doing

As a board member, you’ll:

• Help local people have a real say in how the £20 million is spent.
• Work with others to make Slade Green a better place to live and work.
• Support projects that boost community pride, improve local spaces, and create new opportunities.
• Be part of something that will leave a lasting impact for future generations.

What to expect

• Attending a monthly board meeting in the local area, sometimes in person and sometimes online.
• Spending a few hours a month making connections and talking to people.
• Board members will be selected in August, following an informal and friendly interview.
• You will get support to shine in this role, with guidance and training, working with a friendly and supportive group of people.
• Early work will focus on listening to the community and shaping a shared vision.
