The full panel for this year’s Crawley Question Time has been announced.

The event, which takes place from 7-9pm on Thursday 14 March in the Civic Hall, gives residents an opportunity to ask questions about topics important to them.

This year’s panel is:

Councillor Peter Lamb, Leader of Crawley Borough Council
Councillor Duncan Crow, Leader of the Opposition at Crawley Borough Council and West Sussex County Councillor
Councillor Peter Smith, Cabinet Member for Planning and Economic Development at Crawley Borough Council
Chief Inspector Rosie Ross, District Commander, Crawley Police
Dr Laura Hill, Acting Clinical Chair, Crawley Clinical Commissioning Group
Vicki Illingworth, Principal, Crawley College
Laiba Baig, Crawley Young Persons Council.

Crawley Question Time takes the form of an independently-chaired general debate and discussion. There are no set topics so attendees can raise any areas or concerns for discussion, such as community safety, Brexit, health, Gatwick Airport, parking, the economy and so much more!

The event will be chaired by Jo Gumb, Managing Director of White Label creative.

The event is open to everyone; the public, business leaders and partner organisations. The views and comments expressed will help the council and others to plan work on improving services and the town in general.

Councillor Peter Lamb said: “As a council, Crawley believes that it is important we give residents the chance to hold decision-makers to account. Crawley Question Time is a great chance to ask questions about our town and to raise the issues which matter to you in front of local decision-makers, such as myself.

“These evenings are always full of lively debate, so please sign up now and come along to let us know what you’re thinking!”
