Have any of you popped along to the area council roadshows? In Ossy for today but moving all around the borough for the next two weeks.

I went to look at it this morning. The area councils cost quite a lot of money to run each year, so what is your view on them?

I'm a bit torn because the Oswaldtwistle one always gets a good number of people attending but I'm well aware that some of the others don't get much of a turn out. They are quite expensively run by having a number of officers at each meeting, hiring the public hall etc, so do they give value for money?

What do you think?
