The Clean Leith Forum

The next meeting of the Clean Leith Forum will be held on Tuesday 4th of June at 6pm a the MacDonald Road Library.  This is a very useful event to go to if you want to talk directly to environmental wardens.  The forum, one of five (also Moving around Leith, Health & Lifestyle, Feeling Safe and Employment Opportunities) were set up last year to give people in Leith an opportunity to get involved in active local democracy.

Here is the Agenda: Clean Leith Agenda 4th June
