It takes place on Wednesday, May 22 at 7pm in the Commercial Road council chamber.

Residents are able to raise local issues at the meeting and ask questions.
Guests speakers have been invited to the event to give short talks on their work and to answer questions – Barry Gosling from Dorset Police, Matthew Kendall the director for adult services at Dorset Council and Daniel Cadisch, the chief executive of the local Citizen's Advice services.
