Advisory Group

An Advisory Group has been created to oversee the design and implementation of this Citizens' Assembly, and to ensure that participants are presented with factually accurate, comprehensive and balanced information.

This means that it is the Advisory Group who have informed the topics you will receive information about as part of the Assembly process. They have also helped inform who our expert speakers are.

The Advisory Group is made of local stakeholders who can bring knowledge of the borough and of their sector and regional stakeholders who have influence in the borough. While the group doesn’t have any decision-making powers, it helps ensure that the citizens assembly considers a range of things that are linked to the question, both within the borough and at a regional & national level.

The members were representatives from Aston Mansfield, Barts Health Trust, Compost, East End Community Foundation, East London Business Alliance, Fight for Peace, Greater London Authority, London Legacy Development Corporation, Newham Resident Forum, North East London Integrated Care System, One Newham, Populo Living, Royal Docks, University Colllege London
