SEFTON Council is inviting people to help create more inclusive streets in Sefton through the Inclusive and Accessible Streets Forum. The forum has been set up to help Sefton Council work together with residents around issues of inclusion and accessibility in the street scene. 

The forum aims to work together to raise awareness of issues that affect those who use the streets, consider if services are working well, and support more people and organisations to understand the needs of people. 

The forum meets every 3 months, with the next meeting on:- Wednesday, 28 January 2026, to show and talk about plans and ideas for the transport and highway improvements in Sefton.
