They already do community focused events.

There was the Royal Wedding and St George's Day in summer this year. Plus, the light switch on. There's the food festival in April.

There are local performers performing in the market during the run up to Christmas.

A committee has started working on the Queen's jubilee next year.

The problem is that all these things cost money and the one thing the council doesn't have much of is spare money. I can just imagine the fuss there would be if the council spent any extra money on putting on events. Well, actually I don't need to imagine it because there are loads of threads on here about it.
