    The Dukinfield East Residents' Association held a public meeting on June 29th 2015. Instead of the traditional format, attendees were divided into small groups that rotated between guest speakers, including housing organization representatives, a police officer, and local politicians. The new discussion-based format allowed for more interaction between residents and guests in focused 10-minute sessions. Both residents and guests provided positive feedback on the alternative approach. The association plans to use a similar format for future public meetings.

    A Different Form of Meeting
    For this public meeting, we took a different approach. Upon arrival attendees were divided into small
    groups of three or four and circulated between the invited guests, for a time-limit of ten minutes per
    guest, to hear about recent developments and have the opportunity to ask questions about any issues or
    concerns they had.
    After one complete rotation, there was time for a small number of individual one to one discussions
    before the meeting closed.
    DERA could not monitor the topics of discussion since there were five groups circulating at any one time.
    However, feedback was very positive from both guests and members and, on this basis, the procedure
    will be repeated at one of our future public meetings.
    Guests have been contacted to ensure that they follow up on any commitments they made to our
    attendees during their discussions.
