Hillsborough Residents Association
Meetings are held on the first Wednesday of every month and are currently being hosted by HASA (Hillsborough Arena Sports Association). All meetings start at 6:30 pm and usually last about an hour. Getting there is very easy by public transport and there is ample parking if you need to drive. We have provided a map and some instructions below.The format of the meetings is deliberately informal and residents and visitors are encouraged to raise to issues for discussion. To focus the meeting and concentrate our discussions we often try to theme meetings in advance, this allows the committee to invite key speakers to both answer questions and more importantly to listen to our views on local issues. For an example of some of the themes see the Campaigns link. If there is a particular issue you want to raise then either bring it up at a meeting or better still advise us in advance by sending an e mail to : contactus@hillsboroughresidentsassociation.co.uk and we will raise the topic for you. The meetings are public and all are welcome but we do request that visitors refrain from political campaigning.
